Secrets of High-Performance Teams in a Remote-Work Environment with Bernie Spang Forces of Business Transformation

    • Gestione

Many forces and pressures have been building and creating a desire for remote work, which is the topic of today’s episode. When you have a culture of mutual respect, trust, a clear and simple strategy, and outcome-based work, it doesn’t matter if your workforce is co-located or distributed around the globe. A culture that celebrates the remote workforce opens itself to a greater pool of top talent which could greatly improve the profitability of the company.

When I was thinking about who to interview for this podcast, I couldn’t think of a better person than Bernie Spang, who I worked for on a remote team for a little over 2 years at the turn of the century. Bernie ran the WebSphere Studio Tools Marketing team that was part of the WebSphere Middleware Marketing team that was a part of the IBM Software Group. He currently is Program Director, Watson AI-powered virtual assistants, IBM.
