Publisher's summary

Wall Street Journal and Publishers Weekly Bestseller

Learn success secrets from original remote work pioneers on the mindset and strategies they developed to build and grow successful organizations from the ground up.

With the unprecedented rise in remote work due to the pandemic, many businesses have struggled with how to effectively transition to a distributed format. Meanwhile, companies who had always been remote-first had a unique advantage: a highly scalable set of work processes, a unique communication style, and the proper “async mindset” required to succeed without an office.

This groundbreaking guide unlocks the secrets and lessons discovered by those pioneer entrepreneurs and founders who have figured out how to harness the async mindset and grow their businesses remotely in the most seamless, freeing, and cost-effective ways.

Once you accept and master some fundamental differences, remote work can fuel higher productivity, eliminate time-wasting meetings and treacherous commutes, and strip away the ugly politics that often undermine the most talented employees. It also leads to great cultural inclusivity and richer cultural exchange.

Running Remote is for ventures of all stripes—companies small and large, one-person operations, mom-and-pop shops, and global megacorporations. The lessons herein are as valuable for on-premises organizations as they are for the tech worker.

Listeners will:

  • Master the fundamentals of the async mindset by exploring three overarching principles—deliberate overcommunication, democratized workflow, and detailed metrics.
  • Learn nuts-and-bolts techniques and real-life lessons from remote work trailblazers who built successful all-remote organizations prior to the pandemic.
  • Gain a better understanding of why hiring, on-ramping, and managing in a remote context is totally different—again with methods and first-hand stories from the founders and leaders that did it first.
  • Lean how moving to a remote business model impacts traditional management and work processes.

Accompanying figures, step-by-step instructions, and URLs are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Remote First and Not turning back

This is an amazing book. This is the future and will transform the world if people will stop holding on to the way we used to manage people and businesses. It’s time for us all to move into the future or fail to progress.

Not very useful in running a real remote company

We've been remote for almost 4 years now - looking to pick up some tips on improving culture. Instead, found this book is all about "async communications" - which is built by introvert sho don't really want to communicate face-to-face, over zoom or with phone calls - rather do everything by writing log dialogs in Slack. They put down a lot of other management & communication styles to promote that running your company by slack beats everything.

Not the reality that I've seen over the last 4 years. I'm returning the book
