About This Course

This course is for business owners, leaders, and HR leaders who are looking to create and engage a remote-based workforce.

Working with and managing a remote-based workforce has a whole set of different challenges to an office-based workforce. Most organisations sent their entire workforce home during the pandemic. Many did so on a temporary basis with a temporary mindset.

In this course, I share over a decade’s worth of experience in building and growing remote teams. I show you how to overcome some of the challenges from building strong relationships, great communication and how to tackle some of the challenges that may arise such as loneliness and miscommunication. Plus, the importance of creating an agile and flexible mindset.

Remote working opens a great opportunity to recruit from a much more diverse talent pool and I share some perspectives on this with you too.

Building remote teams is based on trust and respect, creating great things when you get it right. So, let’s dive in!

I am an experienced CFO who has transformed the office of Finance across multiple companies and industries. I began my career as an auditor and transitioned into Industry where I found the systems at each business I worked in lacking. I learned how to build Finance teams, the right processes, and then implement the systems to match. I have built high-performing teams and financial models for every size and type of business, and successfully designed and implemented systems including SAP, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Prophix. My specialty is I speak "business" not accounting, and can explain complex topics in a simple, interesting way. After doing the work for 25 years, I am now sharing my tools and best practices so that the next generation of Finance leaders have the resources they need at hand. I only teach what I have successfully done! In addition to Finance, I am passionate about building better businesses, with Diverse leadership, people-first practices to create healthy cultures that support ALL people equally. After years of putting work ahead of my health, I'm an avid Fitness enthusiast and work to inspire people to invest in their own health. Follow me on LinkedIn for daily content on Fitness, work/life balance, and building healthy corporate cultures.

I have always loved business building, the challenges, the accelerated learning, and the opportunity that comes from that. Over the last few years, I have specialized in supporting the accelerated growth of HR and people-based consultancies across the UK and USA. Many of which are 100% home-based. I can see a really bright future in today's rapidly changing world and the opportunity for a wider and more diverse workforce to be able to embrace the world of work on their terms.
