THINGS WE TALK ABOUT:

• Future migration trends driven by remote work
• How managers can be the biggest distraction for direct reports
• Advice for parents seeking to transition to a remote-first organization 
• The search for talent has opened up but your competition has increased
• Positioning yourself and focusing on your specific set of skills
• What he wishes someone would have told him before becoming a parent
• How the early days of parenthood, newborn and postpartum care needs have influenced his perspective 

Thanks to Liam for taking the time to speak about all things parenthood, childcare, asynchronous management and remote work.
