374: Staying Engaged and Connected While Working from Anywhere with Kevin Eikenberry

When you listen to today’s episode, you’ll hear me reference my guest’s appearance as his first, along with how I should have had him on to talk about his last book, and “why has it taken me so long” to get around to having him on.

Kevin Eikenberry

Well, either I’m getting old or the pandemic has fried my brain (“both” is also a strong possibility) because I have indeed had this gentleman on the show before back in episode #226.

Can you say “Egg on face much, Jeff?”

Furthermore, Kevin Eikenberry doesn’t remember visiting the show before either or, more likely, chose not to risk embarrassing me by mentioning it.

At any rate, now that I’ve managed to pull both feet from my mouth, Kevin, and his co-author Wayne Turmel’s latest book is called, The Long-Distance Teammate: Stay Engaged and Connected While Working Anywhere.

The book tackles the most important issues presented by long-distance teamwork. In it, you’ll learn the mindset, skillset, and habits you need to be a successful, engaged, and valued long-distance contributor.
