Episode Summary

It’s no secret how hiring remote workers or setting up your virtual team made you save tons of cost. Since the pandemic, remote working has become the new norm. Do you agree? In fact, a lot of businesses right now offer hybrid work set-ups. If not, they are hiring remote workers and setting up their very own virtual team.

Omar and I talked about our experience in having our virtual teams. He shared how his communication dynamic has been working for him, which made his business scale up to its capacity now. He shared proven tips on how to keep remote employees engaged and the productivity it yields.

By now, there’s no proven science yet, in terms of communication dynamics for managing a remote team. But one thing’s for sure: If you are not effectively managing people face-to-face, there’s no chance you’d be with a remote team!

Tap in now and tune in until the very end!

Listen to this week's show and learn:

• How do you manage a remote team differently?;
• What are the better ways of your communication process?;

Episode Summary

Sara Sheehan joins us in today’s episode! Sara and I talked about one of the most common topics around people management, which is having the best company culture. Is there such?

Sara puts it - company culture’s foundation is supported behaviours. And this came from her years of experience from a human capital perspective. Sara highlights, though, that while it means supported behaviours among a group of people, it is important that you are clearer with the desired outcomes you want to achieve out of tolerance and in your business context. This is how you can create the best company culture while realistically achieving action, accountability and productivity.

We also agreed on one aspect: An unhealthy company culture led by a poor leader is a disaster!

Suppose you feel like you are looking to sprint the corporate ladder, or wanting to create an impact that fires across all cylinders, or delegated to change a company culture that fails the business. In that case, this is an episode you should be tuning in and taking advantage of it!

Listen to this week's show and learn:

• What does the best company culture look like;
• How you can measure your company culture health;
• How to never lose employees without doing a lot;
• How you can avoid leadership disaster by having a great company culture.

Episode Summary

In an age where boundaries between our home and work life are blurring, it’s important for us to discuss the most often overlooked personal development opportunities in your business goal. I am thrilled to be joined by Kerry Paul today to discuss a topic I super love - personal development and growth and how business owners get along with that!

Every business owner faces two factors when running a business: Internal and external. While internal factors are easier to deal with, what really challenges your business goal is when factors outside of your control confront you, regardless of whether or not perceived and pose a greater risk.

Ultimately, the way you adapt and deal with your businesses’ hits and misses directly affects your finances - which as a business owner myself, I am very sensitive to. Get a unique insight into Kerry Paul’s insightful expertise, especially on how you can start exploring personal development opportunities, what you can learn and what you can do next!

Listen to this week's show and learn:

• How does personal development directly affect your business?;
• What are the common things that entrepreneurs struggle with?;
• What are the common business delivery pitfalls?;
• How can you figure out if you are undercharging?
