Managing a remote team isn’t just about the right tools or having the perfect meeting cadence—it’s about how you lead. In this episode, I’m sharing the mindset shifts, strategies, and systems that have helped me lead remote teams across Brazil, Europe, Dubai, India, the Philippines, and Australia—long before remote work became the norm. Whether you’re just starting to build your team or looking for a more sustainable way to lead the one you’ve got, this episode is packed with practical insights, hard-earned lessons, and one tool I swear by for keeping things organized across time zones. 🎙️ In this episode, we’ll cover:
- How to communicate clearly without over-explaining or over-surveilling
- Why upfront trust beats endless check-ins (and how to build it across cultures)
- What really motivates remote teams—and what slowly kills morale
- Why micromanagement is fear in disguise
- The leadership mindset shift every entrepreneur needs to make
- My favorite tool for managing remote teams with less chaos (hint: it’s not Notion)
