Does the number of meetings on your calendar stop you from making meaningful progress?

​Few of us want to have a calendar packed with calls. But so many remote teams fall into the trap of using meetings to create momentum.

​What if you could structure your time so you had the flexibility and autonomy to do your work, share ideas, give feedback – and only meet when you really need to?

​You may have heard of asynchronous work, but it's not obvious what it is, or how to make it work for your team.

​In this video recap of our async 101 workshop, we’ll explore why remote teams experience meeting overload, demystify ‘synchronous’ and ‘asynchronous’ work (with clear examples), and set you up to pick one thing on your calendar to make asynchronous (or improve with an 'async-first' approach).

​This workshop was designed for people who are determined to improve the quality and care of their teamwork – and are ready to make the changes to achieve this.

By the end of this 15-minute video recap you will:

  • ​Understand why remote teams often meet too much
  • ​Understand the difference between synchronous and asynchronous work
  • ​Pick 1 thing in your calendar to make asynchronous
  • ​Make a plan for change (and commit to it!)
