Keeping a close-knit team in a distributed environment with Stella Garber, entrepreneur, angel investor, public speaker and advisor
Description
In this episode of See You at Work, we sit down with Stella Garber, an entrepreneur, angel investor, public speaker and advisor to early-stage tech companies and venture funds. Previously, Stella led the marketing team at project management tool Trello for over seven years, building out the company’s strategy and leading them through a $425 million acquisition by Atlassian. As someone who literally wrote the book on effective strategies for managing remote teams, Stella has plenty of wisdom to share for leaders who are looking to support and uplift their remote, distributed and asynchronous colleagues. She explains why she’s always been a big advocate for the remote and distributed work lifestyle, and how teams can stay bonded and tight-knit—despite physical separation. Stella also shares her perspective on asynchronous communication, including why she believes it’s going to be the next major trend in the workforce.
