Excellent Insight and Advice

If only this book could have come out in March 2020, I think it could have saved a lot of people and businesses a lot of headaches when business-employee models had to turn on a dim. The author has personal experience in working remotely, and in this book, she has done a deep dive into what that means for individuals, teams, and companies. She lays out what precisely it is and the variations it can take as well as how workers, teams, management/leadership, and companies can make it work the best for them. She points to a lot of benefits for both the individual employee and the company. Interesting statistics and quotes from workers and management in a variety of industries about how this model works for them and their companies can be found throughout the book. The author also lays out some very practical advice for people at all levels in a company. The beginning part of the book could also be relevant for individual freelancers or solopreneurs. During this still uncertain time when so many companies have been forced into having their employees work from home, this book has valuable insights and tips about how to make it work for everyone involved—and the business/company.

Work Together Anywhere is a guide for individuals and mangers on how to start working remotely. Considering the current world events, the timing for this book is perfect.

There is some really great information shared in the audiobook and PDF references available on their website for additional reading. I am grateful for the PDF references because some of the content, such as a quiz with additional writing required, does not work well in the audiobook format.

One of the things I struggled most with this book is the redundancy of information. A lot of the information is repeated multiple times.

I have been (mostly) working remotely since March and I've had to figure out a lot of that on my own because my job didn't really translate well to working outside of the office. A few of the nuggets I'll be taking back to work with me are "working out loud" and "assume positive intent".

The narration of this book was superb! The pace and intonation was enjoyable to listen to. Thank you to Megan Tusing!

I'm so grateful to Lisette Sutherland & Kirsten Janene-Nelson, RB Media & Gildan Media, and NetGalley for providing me with a free copy of this ARC audiobook in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you to RB Media and NetGalley for a digital copy of this audiobook in exchange for my honest review. I've been fortunate to work at home for years, but with the current Covid issues this year, so many have changed their entire way of working. You might have a team you've never met, have to train, motivate and keep yourself motivated. I enjoyed listening to this. The speed of the narrator and the voice are top notch, and it's full of helpful tips to help you have the best work day possible. No matter where you are.
