Reviews

“Kevin and Wayne provide a road map for designing and building (or rebuilding) teams that work well in any environment, whether collocated, remote, or hybrid/flexible. It’s really the guidebook on ‘team first and location second,’ and every team leader should learn from it.”
—Rob Simmerman, Senior Operations Director, NAES Corporation
 
“A simple yet powerful guide to helping your team work together, no matter where they work from.”
—David Burkus, author of Leading from Anywhere
