Commonwealth Payroll & HR Webinar: Remote Work Isn’t a Perk. It’s a Strategy.

In 2020, companies sent everyone home and hoped for the best. Six years later, a lot of them are still running remote teams on that same emergency plan, and it shows. Trust is thin, and productivity is uneven. Add AI to the mix and teams drift apart even faster. For many employees it feels like a threat, and it makes it easier to work alone instead of together.

On November 4, join Jeff Plakans and remote leadership expert Cecilia Dahl for a candid conversation about the realities of leading remote teams. They’ll share real-life lessons, common missteps, and ways to build trust while helping people feel connected and supported when your team isn’t always in the same room. They’ll also explore a growing challenge: preserving human leadership as AI reshapes how teams communicate and get work done.

You’ll learn how to:

• Turn a remote work policy into a leadership strategy built on trust and accountability
• Recognize when employees feel disconnected or hesitant to speak up
• Rethink onboarding, mentoring, training, and meetings to strengthen connection and performance
• Keep leadership human as AI takes on more of the work
