What does Johan Book say about working remotely?
During Sitevisiondagarna 2023, Johan Book from Hej Engagemang gave a lecture on remote collaboration. Here you get both inspiration and concrete tips on how to succeed.
But who is Johan Book from Hej Engagemang? Well, he's spent the last twenty years working on internal communications, strategy implementation and leadership development. What he doesn't know about work psychology research isn't worth knowing – and Johan thinks we need to get better at applying all the knowledge about our human drives to the world of work.
After this lecture, you can use the research to think about questions like:
- Digital tools come and go, but our psychological needs remain. We stand there with amazing technology in one hand and our ancient brain in the other.
- We will all, through the energy and behaviors we bring to the workplace (whether we enter through a physical or digital door), influence the engagement, motivation and well-being of our colleagues.
- Collaborating remotely is about agreeing on how we will design that work together based on what is best for us as a team, not just what is best for me as an individual.
