S3 | Episode 149: Retaining our Humanity in a Remote Work World with John Friedman
About the Episode
Today we’re going to talk about some of the things that a shift to remote work has changed that may have gotten less notice than some more obvious things like Zoom meeting fails, companies’ lack of remote work policies, and other things that were first to be addressed. There are very real, very human moments that are missed when we don’t have face to face interaction, and while some things like this may be harder to quantify, they are no less important when we strive to create great employee experiences. To help me discuss this topic, I’d like to welcome a returning guest: John Friedman, author of “Managing Sustainability: First Steps to First Class” and Sustainability Manager, WGL.
