Welcome to the World of the Workplace Wanderer: My Journey into Remote Work

Hello and Welcome! If you’ve found your way here, chances are you’re navigating the fascinating landscape of remote or hybrid work, just like me. Welcome to The Workplace Wanderer, your compass for the hybrid work journey.

I’d like to start by sharing a little about myself. I’ve spent years delving deep into the complex world of healthcare, helping to guide decision-making and innovation from behind my computer screen. In my role, I have the privilege of steering a team that spans different time zones and works entirely from their own home spaces. But my journey into the world of remote work started well before the pandemic hit. I first started leading virtual teams in 2009 and made the leap to full-time remote work myself in 2017. It’s been a journey filled with challenges, discoveries, and plenty of video calls.

But let’s back up a bit. The landscape of work has drastically changed in recent years. The pandemic has ushered in a new era of remote work, with many people finding themselves working from their living rooms for the first time. As we start transitioning back to the office, many are now facing a hybrid work situation. It can be overwhelming , to say the least.

This blog is my way of reaching out, of connecting with others who are navigating this new normal. I’ve experienced firsthand the challenges of balancing work and personal life, of maintaining productivity outside the traditional office environment , and of leading a team that’s scattered across different locations.

So, what can you expect from The Workplace Wanderer? You’ll find a treasure trove of tips, advice, and tools for thriving in a remote or hybrid work setting. Whether you’re an experienced remote worker looking for fresh insights or a newcomer still adjusting to your home office, there’s something here for you.

This is an exciting journey, and I’m thrilled to have you with me. Let’s explore the world of remote work together!
