Curriculum

Learn-by-doing with a modern remote work curriculum

Our Program is setup to make you learn remote work step-by-step with a practical curriculum that focuses 100% on learn-by-doing. Unlike a lot of online courses who are just a bunch of videos, our Program teaches you the latest tools, workflows, and best practices.
Make hybrid working team agreements
Week 1

In the first week, you'll get to dive in and design your own Perfect Week while working location-independent, and apply parts of it to your own week. This is like putting on your oxygen mask first, before helping the others around you. It gives you the confidence and skills to solve any problem when it comes to working distributed.

  • Design your own perfect week
  • Set daily goals that don't burn you out
  • Doing weekly reviews to never forget anything
  • Capture all this in your personal Operating System in Notion
Remote communication & collaboration
Week 2

In week two you will focus on asynchronous communication, to create more flexibility, freedom, and better outcomes for yourself and your team. You'll be practicing to communicate asynchronously with your team, with text, audio, and video. By the end of the week, you have team agreements on what communication needs to be real-time and what can be done async.

  • Documenting everything (yes, everything)
  • Choose your tools for effective real-time communication
  • Using text, audio and video for asynchronous communication
  • Establishing a remote company culture
Turn meetings into (remote) workshops
Week 3

In the third week you'll apply your future of work skills to create and run your own Remote Workshops. You'll create your first workshop on your own, using agile methodologies to organise and plan your workshop. By the end of the week you'll have three workshops you can run with your team.

  • Create engaging online retrospectives to improve every week
  • Learn how to run User Story Mapping sessions in MURAL
  • Running asynchronous workshops to be innovative and flexible
  • Test your workshops and improve your online facilitation skills

Q: “Is this course for me?”

Why take our Hybrid Working course?

You don't need an office to be productive.

But most organisations are struggling with big challenges:
  • They have recreated the office online (causing people to burn out)
  • Social interactions don't happen (or feel awkward)
  • Meetings are ineffective, because people are missing (online) facilitation skills
This course will help you to leapfrog ahead of your competitors, giving you the tools, techniques, strategies and templates you need to master hybrid teamwork.

Course Reviews

Here's what people think of the course.

"I had a unsatisfied feeling about retro’s without action points and low engagement. Those retrospectives felt like a total waste of time (for me and the team). The course helped to increase engagement and give retrospectives the right structure that create clear action points that we circle back to."
Thomas Peters

Thomas Peters

Agile Lead @ Bynder

"I had never facilitated a retro before and wasn't sure what was necessary. The good short videos were broken up nicely and never felt overwhelming. In my first retro we had high levels of engagement.."

Christopher Bennie

Software Developer @ Crave Interactive

"My team went through this course and now I feel relieved that I'm not the bottleneck anymore when organising retrospectives. The additional benefit is that the group can learn from each other and has proven to be open to receiving and providing feedback."
Guido de Vries

Guido de Vries

VP of Software Development @ Crave Interactive

"Relief! Retros now seem less daunting. I feel there is still room for improvement in our team, but the simple explanations and examples in each video were extremely helpful."

Selina

Lead Software Tester @ Crave Interactive

"I felt a bit overwhelmed by how much information there was on retros. The videos were short, informal and information dense. I liked this style as it meant I could rewatch to learn more each time and pay attention for the entire video."

Calum Grant

Software Developer @ Crave Interactive

"I liked from the course that both the reasoning why retros can be useful is explained, as well as a more hands-on approach to how Miro can be used to facilitate retros. The Miro templates to put things into practise are very useful."

Hi, Arthur here 👋 . In short, I:

  • 🤝 spent 12 years at the intersection of tech & teamwork.
  • 📈 worked as developer, agile coach, consultant and design sprint facilitator with startups, agencies, and corporates.
  • 🌎 have helped 200+ (virtual) teams worldwide to work better together, with each other and their customers.

I created this program to help teams eliminate the noise in today's business (back-to-back meetings, endless notifications, email overload, confusing priorities). Working asynchronous-first enables teams to build healthy team habits, and be more flexible and productive while doing so.

You've seen what I do in my YouTube videos and Miro templates. Now it's time for you to copy my approach and do the same with your teams.

Usually, within two to fours weeks. The course starts with one-on-one Coaching Calls for all your team members. To be able to schedule this, we need some preparation time to align our calendars with yours. Book a call to speed up this process.

How long will I have access to the course materials?

You get lifetime access and all future updates to the content are on us!

Is support included?

Yes, you will have a dedicated Agile Coach and Hybrid Expert guiding you and your team. For questions that we cannot solve ourselves, we might direct you to our network of Remote Experts.

What if my team is really busy?

This course will help your team save time, by mastering the tools needed to work more flexible and productive. It's like sharpening your ax, so you can cut down the trees faster. The course is designed to work with your current priorities as much as possible.

What's after this course?

You will be creating an adaptable way of working and set a team goal for the three months after finishing the course. Our Retrospective course and OKR course can help you achieve those goals faster.
