ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Björn explores the surprising truth that real engagement isn't driven by company culture or perks, it's built at the team level, often in "hidden" teams that never appear on an org chart. Discover how the best leaders focus on span of attention over span of control, why remote workers who feel truly connected are more engaged than colocated workers, and how to become a "weirdness orchestrator" who brings out the unique value in each team member.
