#7 - Remote-First Transformation with Jason Morwick

How does a 1200-person office-based company transform into a leading remote-first company? Jason Morwick is Head of Remote-First at Cactus. In this episode, he takes us deep into how Cactus went all-in on remote-first and became one of Quartz's 20 Best Companies for Remote Workers. 

This episode is packed with useful info for supporting a remote-first, globally distributed team. We talk about crafting policies, working with budgets, experimenting with tools, organizing retreats, and so much more. Jason also shares wisdom on leading change and how to help team members feel like they're driving the transformation.
