Abstract
The remote workplace is filled with all sorts of opportunities. It also brings with it unique challenges that require a very different type of management style. This project is based on a 2023 Edgren Scholarship study, followed by work with David Horsager, the Trust Edge Institute, and interviews with CEOs across the country. We propose a 6-step strategy to build trust at a distance. They include Amplify Communication, Clarify Direction, Establish Predictability, Redefine Accountability, Create Connection, and Equip your Workforce.
