TEAMS Work: Managing Boundary-Busting Teams

Managing hybrid teams, where some of us are in person and others at home, takes a special kind of finesse. How do we build teams that make the most of being hybrid, and how do we keep pulling in the same direction… even when we’re not in the same space?

Our guest this episode is Jana Raver. As the E. Marie Shantz Professor of Organizational Behaviour at Smith School of Business, with a cross-appointment to the Department of Psychology at Queen’s University, Dr. Raver spends considerable time thinking about interpersonal dynamics and the ways we work together in teams. She has a particular interest in examining how employees build and sustain high-performance teams versus undermining each other. She is joined in conversation by host Meredith Dault.
