David Hassel is a serial entrepreneur and the co-founder and CEO of 15Five, which is what he views as his opportunity to help organizations and individuals reach their potential and become ‘organizationally-actualized’. He and his team have developed industry leading people management software to drive high performance for over 2000 customers via a suite of features, including weekly check ins.

I brought David onto the podcast today to talk about how to transition into remote work and optimize the online working space. This conversation is geared towards leaders, managers and owners who now find themselves being thrust into managing a remote team.
