Depends on what the company values more - presenteeism or people.

If your best leader is remote, why wouldn't you hire them?

I mean, they may be passed over at certain employers - but... If your workplace can't support the simplest employee wants, is that really where you want to work? There are now more options than ever.

I think this depends significantly on your industry and corporate culture but those in an office with the executive team have an advantage. There is some truth to "out of sight, out of mind".

So what can you do about it if you are a remote worker? First, make sure you add more value than your competition. Second, make sure to over communicate with your organization when you are remote.

It depends on the company and the specific leaders viewpoint. My company requires VP’s and above to be in Cincinnati for the finance department and work a hybrid schedule. Other departments are fine with remote. I am remote and was told I would have to move to Cincinnati if I got promoted to VP from Sr. Director. It will continue to become more and more normalized and accepted but it isn’t universally accepted yet.

I have just been asked by an exec from another function to audit a critical project in their portfolio which does not appear to be going well. I have some ideas based on my own PMO experience, but wanted to explore how peers might think about approaching such an exercise. Considerations: - outside my main role - risk of conflict with the leader providing project management services to this exec - sensitivity within the other function to potential criticism of their governance - readiness of the project team to provide relevant information

I recommend that you consider finding an outside third party to perform the audit. I have had to do something similar with an unprofitable division/product line that reports directly to our CEO. We outsourced with Alvarez ...read more

We are a large manufacturing company with over 17,000 associates, about half of whom have company-provided cell phones. We average two lost devices per week, which seems low, but executive management is concerned and wants to know if our numbers are typical compared to other companies. My questions are: 1. Do other companies also struggle with lost or stolen devices? 2. What is the average number of lost devices per week? 3. Are there repercussions for associates who lose devices due to carelessness or negligence?

I am trying to understand what are the key skills on the ground that would be pivotal for moving our company to a digital first organization? Have you trialed anything in your organization? What are the skills and trainings you recommend that would be beneficial for the CDIO function at a high level to at least be prepared for the digital disruption in the next two years?
