Conquering Imposter Syndrome on Remote Teams with Rico Nasol

Wayne Turmel explores the challenging world of remote and hybrid work leadership, focusing on imposter syndrome and its impact on leaders. Joined by guest Rico Nasol, a seasoned consultant and coach, the discussion delves into how imposter syndrome manifests, particularly in remote work settings, and strategies for overcoming it. Nasol shares his personal experiences and insights from his time at Netflix, shedding light on leadership development, the importance of understanding team dynamics in a remote environment, and the significance of self-talk in shaping a leader's confidence and effectiveness. Key Takeaways 1. Understanding Imposter Syndrome: Recognize that imposter syndrome is common, especially in remote settings. It involves feelings of self-doubt and a belief that one's achievements are just luck. Acknowledge these feelings when they arise and remember that they are a common psychological phenomenon. 2. Combatting Isolation in Remote Work: In remote work, the absence of real-time feedback can intensify feelings of imposter syndrome. Counteract this by establishing regular check-ins and feedback sessions with colleagues or mentors to validate your work and progress. 3. Positive Self-Talk is Key: Develop a habit of positive self-talk. Remind yourself of your accomplishments and skills. Remember, the way you talk to yourself significantly impacts your self-confidence and perception. 4. Leadership and Imposter Syndrome: New leaders often face imposter syndrome due to a lack of formal leadership training. Focus on developing leadership skills actively and seek mentorship or professional development opportunities. 5. Learning from Rico's Netflix Experience: Understand that feeling like an imposter can occur in any environment, even in high-performance cultures like Netflix. Realize that everyone has unique strengths and that no one is inherently smarter than others. 6. Managing Remote Teams Effectively: For remote team leaders, balance personal and professional goal-setting for your team members. This approach fosters a well-rounded team dynamic and supports individual growth. 7. Hybrid Team Dynamics: In a hybrid work environment, don't underestimate the power of team building. Focus on collaborative, focused work during in-person sessions to maximize creativity and team cohesion. Featured Guest Name: Rico Nasol Bio: Rico Nasol is an accomplished executive and leadership coach with over twenty years of global experience, including key roles at Zappos and spearheading the Netflix Creative Studio. Known for his expertise in executive coaching, content optimization, and innovative technology, including machine learning and computer vision, Rico is dedicated to redefining leadership and fostering environments where balance and engagement thrive, empowering individuals to unlock their full potential.

The last few weeks of the year are an ideal time for self-reflection and review as on the one hand, there's an understandable eagerness to plan and map out goals for the upcoming year. But at the same time, it's a perfect moment to take note of both the successes earned and lessons gained over the past 12 months. It's in the vein of the latter that I wanted to look back at the numerous conversations I had with my guests on my Leadership Biz Cafe podcast to select my favourite guest moments and insights from 2023. To be sure, this wasn't an easy task as I've had the privilege of speaking with some insightful and knowledgeable experts over these past 12 months. Combing the perspectives of looking back and looking ahead, here are my favourite highlights from some of the conversations I had on my podcast in 2023: John Baldoni - Why great leaders take care of their employees by creating community and why grace is the how to making that happen. Adam Bryant - Why your ability to offer feedback and give recognition is key to your ability to make the leap to leader and why so many of us struggle with this form of communication. Tamara Sanderson – How leaders can address concerns over loneliness when offering remote work options, and what the shifting dynamics of relationships at work tell us about the future of work. Bertina Ceccarelli and Susanne Tedrick – What leaders should be doing to retain a diverse workforce during today's uncertain economic conditions to ensure they can attract key talent needed to grow the organization when the economy roars back to life. James Burstall – How creativity can help leaders be better prepared for the next crisis by treating it as an opportunity for growth and not just a time to hunker down. Erika Andersen – What leaders need to do to make their organization more agile and responsive following a major change. If you're looking for some inspiration and guidance on how to be better prepared to address the challenges your organization will face in 2024, I want to encourage you to listen to this year-end retrospective episode, and to check out upcoming episodes of my podcast that we'll be releasing in 2024.

To offer remote work opportunities or not to offer remote work opportunities? If you look at the articles found in various business outlets these days, it would seem organizations are facing an existential crisis when it comes to how today's workplaces should operate. At the heart of this debate is an on-going tug-of-war where leaders on the one hand worry about a loss in productivity and organizational culture, while employees on the other hand want the flexibility to decide when and where they do their work. But in our drive to figure out the future of work, are we focusing more on the symptoms rather than the root causes behind such issues as declining productivity, rising levels of loneliness, and diminished opportunities for career growth that are being linked to remote work? Thankfully, I've had the chance to speak to an expert – and seasoned remote leader – to help shine a light on what it really takes to make remote work, well, work and overcome those understandable concerns many leaders have. In addition to being a former Googler, Tamara Sanderson is the co-founder of Remote Works, an organizational design and consulting firm with a mission to liberate teams from the nine-to-five and teach them how to do their best work, anytime, anywhere. Along with her co-author, Ali Greene, Tamara has written a fantastic book called “Remote Works: Managing for Freedom, Flexibility, and Focus” that offers a clear blueprint to help leaders not only get better at leading remote teams, but details the systems and processes you need to have in place to help with onboarding new employees and strengthening your organization's culture. And over the course of our conversation, Tamara shares a brilliant answer to my question about how should we address the loneliness issue in today's organizations – whether your employees are working fully remote or in some hybrid work arrangement. If you're struggling with how to adapt and transform your workplace to address the growing demands of employees for greater flexibility around the way they work, I strongly encourage you to make the time to give this episode a listen. It will give you a better handle on what you need to do to solve this issue in your workplace. https://open.spotify.com/episode/3sOY8opSN8yG5xY0Wh6a2z?si=cbfda8caba6d4586 Noteworthy links: Buy Tamara Sanderson and Ali Greene's book “Remote Works” on Amazon.* Learn more about Tamara Sanderson's work: www.remoteworksbook.com. *sponsored link that helps to support this podcast.

What Standard Operating Behaviors are and why Ali shares them in response to anyone who says “You can't build culture remotely - it just doesn't work!”What rituals and artifacts are and how you can identify and design them intentionally for remote work environments. How to remotely recreate the “magic” that occurs when a team is physically together for a brainstorm.What GenZ doesn't realize about remote work and how they can find great mentorship and community when working remotely. The remote best-practices that hybrid organizations need to adopt in order to achieve true inclusivity. Both Tam and Ali's favorite resource from the book.

Wayne Turmel joins Tamara Sanderson and Ali Greene, authors of the book Remote Works: Managing for Freedom, Flexibility and Focus, to discuss their passion for remote work and the importance of intentionality in successfully transitioning to remote work. They stress the need for companies to have non-negotiables in place, including trust-building, autonomy, and rethinking traditional management techniques. They also emphasize the need for leaders to embrace the liberation and benefits of remote work and let go of outdated practices. Ultimately, remote work must be designed to fit a company's values and decisions must be made with intentionality in order to maintain sustainability and attract talent. Key Moments Remote work is not just about the surface level of technology tools like Zoom, but it requires rethinking every aspect of work to truly unlock its benefits. Intentionality is crucial for successful remote work, including having non-negotiables in place and designing remote work to fit a company's values. Trust-building, autonomy, and letting go of outdated management techniques are key to successfully transitioning to remote work. Remote work should be embraced as a form of liberation from the traditional office, and not simply as a temporary solution to the pandemic. Leaders must learn to let go and embrace the future of remote work to maintain sustainability and attract talent.

In March of 2020, small and large businesses alike had only hours to pack up and begin navigating the new normal of remote or hybrid work. And a little over two years later, it's clear that the pandemic has left an indelible mark on our teams and our processes. In this episode of Transform Your Workplace, Brandon Laws interviews Ali Greene, remote work expert, speaker, and advocate, about how to keep remote teams connected and productive no matter where their “office” is.     TAKEAWAYS When leading a remote or hybrid team, leaders must ensure that their employees have access to information so they can be more effective and efficient in their roles. By defining terms like “remote” or “hybrid,” leaders give their teams clear expectations of what it means to be part of an organization. Remote Works contains reflection questions and activities that managers and leaders can ask themselves to make sure that they're using best practices for keeping teams connected. Business leaders must take advantage of communication tech tools to ensure that employees are engaged and productive at every turn.   A QUICK GLIMPSE INTO OUR PODCAST

She also has advice for people who would like to advocate for themselves when they would prefer to remain in a home office when others are beginning to return to their workplace. In our interview, Ali chats a bit about the digital nomad lifestyle and how she has personally handled things such as ergonomics and navigating a new city when she doesn't know the language.
