About the book: 
The essential guide for when (and how best) to use virtual communication tools, from video to instant messaging and everything in between.
 
Andrew Brodsky is here to explain that, yes, that meeting could have been an email. And that email? Maybe it should have been a voice memo. Your camera? It’s okay to turn it off, sometimes even better. Many of us give far too little thought to our virtual communication, and end up feeling isolated, overlooked and burnt out.  Ping  distils Brodsky’s cutting-edge social science research on remote communication tools. He helps us understand:
 
  • How we can interact most productively and authentically
  • How we can build relationships at a distance
  • The rules for making an impact online
  • How we can increase inclusion and reduce conflict
 
With entertaining stories and interviews from top business leaders,  Ping  is the ultimate playbook for all workplaces from in-person, to remote and everything in between.
