Inspiring Remote Tech Teams: Keys to Leadership and Purposeful Performance

For me and other tech  people, leaders, and members of remote teams, we will be awakened by all  the fantastic hands-on hints, best practices, and guiding principles  based on solid ground that Hubbert provides in Inspiring Remote Tech  Teams. We will be better prepared and better equipped to both contribute  and lead efficiently in the digital economies that shape the future of  our world.

― Thomas DiGiacomo, President of Engineering and Innovation at SUSE

Inspiring  Remote Tech Teams is a trail map to building effective teams and  organizations―now, as world health dictates remote work, and in the  future, as global talent pools contribute to our digital economy.

Humans  are wired to be social, and world events require social distancing from  our office community. The absence of "community" triggers primitive  brain responses. These instinctual responses of survival, social  belonging, and the power of story all profoundly surface during our  reaction as we adjust to remote work.

This  trail map for team leaders improves team execution despite physical  separation. The book covers simple neuroscience as it applies to our  "separation." It is a hands-on guide to maintaining and improving  teamwork while working remotely. It is also a hands-on guide at the  intersection of teams + remote + laymen’s neuroscience to create a  positive sense of enthusiasm, engagement, and contribution, even when  working apart.

Remote  teams, now and for the future, are the pathway to using global talent  effectively. This book examines the combination of the "hard skills" of  tech team project management and the "soft skills" of healthy  distributed teams: remote offices, sales offices, partners, suppliers,  customers, and teams engaging global talent pools. Practical examples  and best practices offer hands-on methods to use neuroscience to help  teams be their best, to improve collaboration, and to deliver consistent  team results.
