Today’s special guest is author, speaker, and CEO at PeopleG2, Chris Dyer. PeopleG2 is a fully distributed company of more than 30 people — and 3,000 independent contractors — focused on pre-employment screening helping clients find better employees. On the heels of his book, The Power of Company Culture: How any business can build a culture that improves productivity, performance and profits, Chris established his authority in the remote work space becoming a sought after public speaker and keynote, coaching top companies on how to develop company culture on remote teams. His new book, Remote Work: Redesign Processes, Practices and Strategies to Engage a Remote Workforce arrives in the summer of 2021 and continues to serve Chris’s mission to teach others to how to build great remote company cultures.

Here for an insightful conversation about the different types of remote work — including the latest on work from home and hybrid teams — the keys to building an amazing company culture, and to discuss the so-called rush back to the office post-COVID, please join me in welcoming to the show, the incredible, Chris Dyer.
