Distributed: Secrets to building radically healthy remote teams

Darren Murph is a pioneer in distributed work and a recognized visionary in organizational design. As Head of Remote, he led workplace strategy and operations at GitLab, the world’s first fully distributed company to IPO. A roadmap to what excellence looks like in the future world of work. This ground-breaking book challenges the modern company to build healthy and productive remote teams, to ensure they are attracting the best talent. To do this, they must look to a ‘distributed’ model – based on remote-first principles of communication, culture, productivity, and leadership. Distributed questions every element of the corporate status quo; challenges where and how culture is formed and grown; and takes a systems-level approach to running a people-driven company, which leans on a shared way of working and an intentionally selected digital tool stack to create cohesion in the absence of a physical office. This innovative book is for employees who want more agency and freedom in where/how they complete their work, and for employers who need to revise their mindsets to create an environment where modern work can thrive.
