Pilar welcomes back Tammy Bjelland, CEO of Workplaceless and Theresa Hollema, author of “Virtual Teams Across Cultures” to talk about career progression in remote and global teams. Tammy covers how organisations can ensure that remote employees don’t miss out on career development in hybrid settings, and Theresa talks about how hard it is for distributed employees to get the attention of HQ for resources and career opportunities and how that adds a type of stress, which has nothing to do with performance.
