What does it really take to succeed in leading hybrid teams? In this episode of the HRDQ-U In Review Podcast, host Sarah welcomes leadership expert Wayne Turmel to follow up on his webinar, Hybrid Work Solutions: 5 Leadership Strategies That Deliver. With over 20 years of experience in virtual communication and remote leadership, Wayne uncovers the real strategies behind successful hybrid work solutions – not just policies and platforms.
He outlines five key strategies that help organizations adapt with purpose: from rethinking how work is designed to focusing on outcomes rather than activity, and from reimagining office space to building intentional leadership habits. This episode is packed with straightforward, practical insight for leading teams in a hybrid world – whether you're fully remote, fully in-person, or somewhere in between.
