Virtual Leadership: practical strategies for success with remote or hybrid work and team powerfully commences with the bold statement that the ‘‘society is changing, with a new generation joining the workforce who have grown up with the internet and cannot imagine a world without smartphones and mobile data’’ (p. 37–38). This book aims to provide readers with a deep insight into leading in a virtual world and the formidable challenges that hybrid working presents by posing probing questions like: What does virtual working allow you to do that was not possible in the past? Why do you want a virtual meeting and is a meeting necessary to achieve your outcomes? A deep reflection on these questions is very important. The book includes strategies, and useful aids like checklists, case studies, stories, and recommendations to make the subject matter more engaging. This 10-chapter book addresses the significant difficulties that hybrid working poses, and the author’s argument for virtual leadership is even more pertinent now. This book is intended to provide the reader with useful guidance and suggestions for improving their leadership in hybrid teams and virtual work environments.
