The Long-Distance Teammate: Stay Engaged and Connected While Working Anywhere

Kevin Eikenberry,Wayne Turmel

What does it mean to go to work when you’re not actually leaving the house? This is the ultimate guide for remote workers who want to stay engaged as team members, maintain robust work relationships, and keep an eye on their long-term career goals.

Full of concrete, real-world examples, this guide is written with both understanding and encouragement–‘Maybe you’re already feeling this. Some days you feel isolated and alone,’ they offer. With so many office jobs now being done at home, this couldn’t have arrived at a better time.
–Publishers Weekly

Even before the coronavirus hit, remote work was growing at nearly 30 percent per year, and now it’s just a fact of life. There are many millions of people who once worked at a central location every day who now find themselves facing an entirely new way of working. Written by the founders of the Remote Leadership Institute, this book is the most authoritative single resource for helping remote workers get work done effectively, build relationships that are both productive and satisfying, and maintain a career trajectory when they are not in constant close contact with their leader, coworkers, or the organization in general.

The Long-Distance Teammate tackles three important issues- navigating the personal and interpersonal, growing the skills to be productive, and communicating effectively–all from a distance. In short, there is a big difference between working at home and being an effective member of a team. This practical guide describes that difference and allows you to be a great remote teammate.
