Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #43 - This edition is the last of the challenges for remote leaders on Leadership Anywhere. From it, you will get a summary of the entire series, putting all the LEGO blocks together. I also intended this edition to reveal some behind-the-scenes info on why I did this series and what is coming up next.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #42 - Welcome back to our weekly newsletter on the future of leadership. This week, we dive into the power of storytelling and why it's a crucial skill for remote leaders. As always, you'll receive context on why it's important, the big wins from doing it right, and a straightforward guide on how you can enhance your storytelling skills.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #41 - This week’s challenge is thought leadership: why it is important, why it is the best investment you can make as a leader, and how to start a thought leadership program immediately. As per previous challenges, you'll get the context (why it's important) and five actionable steps (how to do it), which you can implement at your own pace, DIY. Expect to invest about 3-4 hours in total. Let's get started.

Let's get started.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #37 - Every week, there is a leadership challenge in which you can participate at your own pace. Every challenge defines the why, the what, and the how, providing context, possible wins, and replicable action steps. This week marks the second challenge: practicing empathy in 5 steps.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #36 - Every week, there is a leadership challenge in which you can participate at your own pace.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #35 - I want to summarize what I learned on asynchronous leadership practices in 2023. Last year was a big year for async practices. We’ve had new shiny tools, amazing books published, and many distributed companies sharing their best practices. I was also heavily involved in async operations.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #34 - I spent 10 yrs in the office and another 10 online, leading teams. One of the most fundamental differences was how leaders were perceived by their teams. In the office, it was simple. Online, though, clarity was harder to achieve. We are wired to follow directives, but those can get fuzzy when we are online. Misinterpretation, lack of understanding, and the more global your distributed team is, the more likely you will have cultural problems. That’s where a transparent leadership presence can help.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #33 - Last week, I started a 2-part series on the 50 steps you need to do to be better at remote management. My goal was simple: there are many arguments around this subject. Yet, I believe we need certainty. Even if we're wrong in some steps, we must clearly state what needs to be done. Here comes the second part.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #32 - By now, most of us have accepted that working remotely stays with us, and it will be part of the norm in terms of "how we work," it is time to lay out some ground rules for remote management. I sat down and wrote a list of 50 things you NEED to do to be a better remote manager. I intentionally used the word "need" not the word "can" - this is not an á la carte scenario. All steps are equally important. The more you do, the better you are.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #31 - Growth, at least to me, is a super simple thing. You invest into X activity, and based on the volume of your investment and the time, you will get out 5-10X ROI on said activity. Meanwhile, scaling is repetition on a scale. Scaling is maxing out a current state of efficiency and adding improvement to create a new state and max that out again, and again, and again. 

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #30 - We tend to separate our personal lives from our business lives. We make distinct limits on what's private and what's professional. As employees, we think there's a thing called work/life balance. Some of us also communicate differently, personally and professionally. 

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #29 - I was recently acknowledged as one of the Top 55 Remote Work Thought Leaders by FlexOS; amazing feedback on my work this year. 

As I often receive questions about finding clients, crafting content, and sustaining online activity, I decided to share some key strategies.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #28 - Maybe it is just me because I have many friends in the advertising industry, given my background. But I have this statement coming back to me time-to-time.

You can't do brainstorming/ideation remotely. 

If you collect a bunch of people in an online space, you can't produce the same results (a collection of ideas) for a problem. 

The number one reason is chemistry. Because apparently, chemistry is super important when it comes to creativity. 

Today, I give you some background on how brainstorming works, whether you should use it, and why online is way better. And also, what the heck is chemistry within teams?

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #27 - You've probably seen the news articles in the last few months. Return-to-office because people can't connect & be productive & work efficiently remotely. Also, you've seen the trends of over-employment. A community of people maintains 2, even 3, or 4 full-time remote jobs. It is possible only because they don't work all their hours in either of their jobs. 

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #26 - Organizational chaos happens when there is no intentionally thought-through process on how you work. It leads to making the same decisions multiple times, badly delegated tasks leading to badly delivered results, or simply just spending too much time on finding things. 

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #25 - As you take your company to new heights, your operations need to be designed for scalability. But scaling is about efficient and effective growth. The secret to that? Having a well-oiled operational machine that can expand as your company does. In this newsletter, we'll delve into the 10 rules for creating operations that support scalable growth.

Leadership Anywhere Newsletter #24 - Trust is the biggest issue in workplaces today. Everyone talks about it, yet only some know how to solve it. How to create a trusted space for work? We know all the benefits. The more trust you have, your employees are more loyal, engaged, and productive. There is an army of HR and people professionals who built entire programs around this - yet, I think they are missing the point. All of them.
