Interesting read on what some organisations are doing with remote and hybrid work, but it does date quickly and didn't provide much guidance in terms of practical steps and considerations which I was hoping for.

Still worth the read if you would like some case studies. Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Covid 19 changed the workplace forever.
What’s the future workplace look like? No definitive answer, one size never fits all.
Many organisations have embraced hybrid working or working from home and placed trust into their employees giving them the autonomy to make the right decisions, some companies have still to fully decide what model they will adopt for the future and some have tracking software to ensure employees are working.
Employees face a number of pro’s and con’s to working remotely.
Remote workplace culture is still in it’s testing phase for many and nothing will be finalised for some time yet. Important factors to consider are around wellbeing and what is the right balance for employees and employers.
This book investigates all these things, insightful thought provoking what will the future of work look like.

Remote Workplace Culture is an interesting, informative and insightful read. It provides the much needed valuable guidance and understanding about Remote Working and how the culture in this kind of workplace can be defined and built, with strong foundations.

Remote Workplace Culture offers practical and actionable advice for leaders seeking to increase engagement with their virtual teams. This is especially relevant in 2022, as we’re on the (hopefully) waning side of a pandemic that completely changed the office-based work landscape as we once knew it. As both a manager and employee, I appreciated the real-world perspective that was set forth throughout the book.

An informative book that gets you thinking about developing your own company's remote work culture.

This book covers several topics related to remote working, both in a permanent fashion and the way that was brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. They advocate for companies moving to remote or hybrid work environments, and discuss the challenges and opportunities that these changes can bring. There is advice provided, as well as discussion about what is happening and things that managers and employers should think about when implementing remote work policies.

Overall, I thought this book was really interesting and provided a lot of details and perspectives about what is happening with remote work now during the pandemic, as well as what we might expect long-term. Although it doesn't provide a clear-cut set of best practices (I'm not even sure that would be possible), it was very though-provoking. I'm now thinking about practices I can implement with my own remote team to increase our productivity as well as employee happiness and well-being.

In recent years, the workforce has seen drastic changes and it's very possible that our working culture has been invariable changed permanently. With employers realising they can in fact operate while promoting a remote workforce with a work/life balance, we need to adapt to a new way of thinking of working.

This practical guide gives valuable examples and advice on how to implement and foster productive, healthy workplace cultures without having the office environment. This applies to small, to global businesses and shows case studies from places like the BBC. This easy to read guide is easily segmented, with clearly laid out information and not too much 'jargon.'

Aside from useful information about how to replicate a healthy and happy working environment with flexible and remote features, this also features the importance of wellbeing and support that can be needed when having employees working remotely without having actual face-to-face contact with managers and colleagues.
