Ep. 14 - Leading Effective Teams in a Remote Environment with Natalie Furness

Natalie Furness, CEO of RevOps Automated and Revenue Operations Consultant shares her journey and learnings along the way onto remote work and falling into the world of operations.She speaks of finding your people through value alignment for both the work you do and the work environment you prefer. Though she’s the biggest remote work proponent, she acknowledges that its’ not for everyone and a reshuffling can and should naturally occur for the best possible match.She encourages remote individuals not to lose sight of their personalities and not allow slack only to be a platform for work. Instead, she reminds us to use it to continue fostering social bonds as we would in person, and also continue to empower others to check in with one another and release the pressure off yourself as a leader for the need to control everything. One of her main pieces of advice is to lead with empathy and understand the challenges of remote work to then better help those you lead.
