Brian Elliott: Connected, Effective, Workplace Future | Work 20XX #15

Brian Elliott literally 'wrote the book' on the future of work with his fellow authors and Future Forum co-founders, Sheela Subramanian and Helen Kupp. ‘How The Future Works.’. At Future Forum, Brian and team got beyond the assumptions, and surveyed 10,000 people, every quarter to get the data. 

What are the secrets to building culture, connection, driving innovation, and effectiveness, in the ever-evolving world of work? Culture, Innovation, and Productivity, that s what people question the most in my workplace, future of work, hybrid, remote, digital-first........ conversations. 

So we jumped right into it, and Brian shares some of the lessons learned, a level deeper into connections, behaviors, communications, effective, management principles, meetings as more, with actionable insight that everyone can use to improve the work experience, regardless of where you plug in your laptop of recharge your phone.

Digital-first, agency, flexibility, psychological safety, all built on intentional behaviors, 1:1 communication, documentation-first, and repeated communication on the mission, the why, and each person's role in delivering against the mission (see Janitor, JFK, & Apollo Moon Mission story). Living the values in words, actions, and decisions. Pushing decision-making down as far as possible, including the establishment of norms at the team level. 

What a treat to sit down with one of the top leaders in the industry, built on the back of amazing first-person survey data, the Future Forum partnership, and experience at Slack, Google, and BCG, key and leading players in the digitization of work and workplace. 

Thanks again, Brain.
