In this bonus episode, Pilar introduces the Five Principles of Asynchronous Communication: 

Team interactions work best when they have one focus: co-ordination, collaboration or connection.


Teamwork happens in stages, and these can happen asynchronously or synchronously.

Designing together our teamwork supports inclusivity.

Asynchronous communication needs calendar time. 

Approach new asynchronous practices as experiments: agree, test, and review. 

If you are a new manager, or new to managing remote teams, you might be interesting in our new audio-first course on asynchronous communication.
