The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many changes to the business world, but one of the most significant has been the shift from the traditional office to remote work. Some companies have weathered this transition well, while others have struggled. There are several reasons why some businesses have adapted better than others, but today's guest believes that it comes down to having clear company values, good management, communication and trust principles in place. In today's episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius chats with Robert Glazer, serial entrepreneur, founder and CEO of Acceleration Partners and the co-founder and Chairman of BrandCycle.
