In an age of re-engineering, re-purposing, and re-tooling; perhaps nothing is as pervasive as re-defining the art of work. That's right, basic everyday work. The kind of work we do to support our families, pay the mortgage, and put food on the table. How is it possible that what used to be a highly supervised, single location, 9 to 5 workday has morphed into an incredibly flexible environment where work is performed in a house, a car, a conference room, and yes - even on the beach? And where is the leader, manager, or supervisor in this world? That's right, invisible!Over the past few years working virtually has become more commonplace than ever. Nevertheless, leaders remain averse to running an organization where their employees are not within arm's reach. So much of a leader's view of remote employees rests on the level of trust a manager has with employees as well as the manager's personal proclivity towards trust. But trust is not enough to create a successful virtual organization as other variables are part of the invisible leadership equation. The Invisible Leader offers a model for the virtual workspace with a style that cares about invisible employees, inspires and motivates these employees, provides intellectual stimulation, and exudes the confidence and charisma to make invisible employees feel needed, important, and valued. By employing the model, no longer will the invisible leader lose sleep or experience heartburn about meeting the numbers at the end of the quarter!
