There’s never been a better time to go all-in on global and remote employment. 

What was once reserved for large enterprises has now become the future of work. The pandemic brought about stronger tools and systems for remote working—as well as a huge mindset shift regarding workplace attitudes

Whether you’re looking to scale your business, explore new markets, overcome talent shortages, or empower diverse communities, global employment opens up a whole new world of opportunity for both leaders and workers alike.  

But what challenges can leaders anticipate in this new era of work, and how can they overcome them? 

In this fireside chat recorded at HR Transform, Oyster’s Tony Jamous (CEO), Ellen Silver (President), Mark Frein (Chief People Officer), and Ruth Umoh (Leadership Editor at Fortune) discuss distributed culture-building, emerging employment trends, and why global employment is the key to democratizing the workplace.
