This book is for leaders and teams ready to challenge the ingrained assumptions about where and how work gets done, offering a powerful mental model for cultivating high-trust, high-autonomy cultures that prioritize outcomes over presence and unlock superior performance in a distributed world.
As co-founder of Basecamp, a company that has successfully operated as a remote-first organization for over two decades, Jason Fried provides a rare, battle-tested perspective on building high-performing distributed teams.
