Description
Remote and hybrid work didn't just change where people work, it fundamentally changed how leadership works.
Many leaders are discovering that the strategies that once drove performance, engagement, and loyalty no longer work in distributed environments. Communication breaks down. Burnout rises. Engagement slips quietly. And managers are left asking:
• How do I truly engage people I don't see every day?
• How do I balance flexibility with accountability?
• How do I lead with empathy without losing performance?
• How do I build trust, inclusion, and collaboration across distance?
Lead, Motivate, Engage: How to INSPIRE Employees in Remote and Hybrid Teams is a practical, research-based guide for leaders navigating this new reality.
Written by leadership coaches and organizational development experts Denise Lopez, PhD and Pearl Hilliard, EdD, this book offers a clear, actionable framework for inspiring engagement, wellbeing, and performance in today's remote and hybrid workplaces.
A Proven Leadership Model, Updated for Today's World of Work
Building on decades of academic research and real-world consulting experience, the authors expand on the framework they initially presented in their first bestselling book (Lead, Motivate, Engage: How to INSPIRE Your Team to Win at Work). INSPIRE 2.0, is a seven-part leadership model specifically adapted for virtual and hybrid teams. You'll learn how to:
• Ignite engagement through clear, intentional communication and meaningful work
• Nurture wellbeing, growth, and development in dispersed teams
• Leverage individual strengths to optimize performance

• Build inclusive, connected, and collaborative cultures across distance
• Lead with emotional intelligence, authenticity, and constructive conflict management

• Research grounded in psychology, organizational science, and leadership theory
• Concrete strategies tailored specifically to remote and hybrid work realities
• Dozens of checklists, self-assessments, and practical tools
