Why a sounding board matters
There's something I forgot to tell you
Earlier this week, I emailed you to share my thoughts on cultivating resilience as a remote worker. One of my tips:
Recruit a sounding board. I make my biggest missteps when I operate in a vacuum.
Well, guess what I did with that newsletter? I skipped the sounding board—and I forgot to include a link to the podcast that was my jumping-off point for the whole discussion of resilience!
So here it is: the latest episode of Waste No Potential, featuring an interview with the brilliant and inspiring Chris Wilson. It's a great episode, and I would love to hear your thoughts on what Chris shared with us.
Bonus: Thinking like a business of one
What are the mental habits and day-to-day practices that can help you work effectively when you're a remote worker—that help you tap into the power of thinking like a "Business of One"?
I'm delighted to keynote a Digital Workplace Experience event on February 3, when I'll talk about the principles for success at remote and hybrid work. Registration is free, and you can sign up here.
I hope you have enjoyed this, um, carefully created object lesson in the value of using a sounding board when you're working remotely. I'll be back next month.
Remotely yours,
Alex
