Episode notes
Clarity Comes From Thoughtful Listening
- Good communicators think before answering and aim for clarity.
- Active listening and reflecting back what you heard are core to understanding.
Establish Communication Before Implementation
- Define the problem and communication channels before starting technical work.
- Write notes, meeting summaries, and project charters so absent teammates stay informed.
Design Remote-First Communication Processes
- Build explicit remote-first processes instead of forcing office hours.
- Use asynchronous channels and scheduled overlap, not 2 AM presence, to scale distributed teams.
