The Remote Show: Talking Async Meeting and Beyond with Tyler Sellhorn | TNN46

The New Nomad

If you feel dragged to a Zoom meeting in the middle of the night when most of your colleagues are fully awake because it's daytime where they're at, you are not alone. The lack of real-time communication is becoming increasingly prominent in the workplace. For this reason, asynchronous communication is becoming a preferred means of communication in the workplace - making it easier for employees to work remotely without fear that they're missing out on critical conversations happening at the office. Tyler Sellhorn, Head of Customer Experience at Yac, is your go-to man when it comes to this type of work communication.

Tyler joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, in this episode of The New Nomad as they talk about the evolution of communication at work. Since most companies opened their doors to working remotely, communication has to be adjusted as well. They discussed why both synchronous and asynchronous meetings are important and the benefits employees and businesses can get from them. It won’t be surprising if companies adopt this shift as well. Truly an enlightening and timely conversation between our three nomads!

GUEST BIO:

Tyler Sellhorn is the Head of Customer Experience at Yac. However, Tyler didn’t begin his career as a “location-independent” advocate. Tyler actually has over 10-years of experience in secondary math education under his belt.

However, after over a decade of educating young minds, Tyler pivoted sharply to a fully-remote role in B2B SaaS in 2019, working for Hubstaff. Not only was this an industry change, but also a career change as Tyler went from educator to Customer Success Manager and then shortly to Director of Customer Experience. Since then, Tyler’s enthusiasm for remote and async-first work is clearly evident.

In Tyler’s short time in the remote and async landscape, he’s talked up a storm – interviewing the best and brightest in async on his Remote Show podcast, amassed a tidy remote-centric following on LinkedIn and Twitter, and taken up the remote gauntlet at Yac.
