How do you lead a team you've never seen?

“A lot of good team culture is safety, ultimately.”
Sure, employees never want to give up remote work. But how does a founder feel?
Ariane Bernard founded?Helio ?in 2020. Her startup has never known a world where you could network in person, meet clients and investors easily or work from a common space with your employees. How do you lead a team you've never seen? And in a multinational startup, how do you work past cultural barriers and incomprehensions when you can't look your coworkers in the eye? She had to find out the hard way.
Ariane talked to me on the Borderline podcast about hiring, onboarding and building a corporate culture in a remote world and I reminisced about my own days growing a global team via zoom and many, many air miles. How has cross-border management changed in this brave new world?

3 年Isabelle, a virtual environment makes it incredibly difficult to observe body language and facial cues. In some cultures, keeping quiet in front of authority does not imply that the person does not have something to contribute. Having said that building a startup, using a virtual environment deepens the talent pool since you can access talented individuals from around the world. Thank you for choosing such a good podcast.
