Episode #10 - Rethinking Travel To Drive Culture in Distributed Teams (Stephen Dooley)

What if business travel could do more than just get you from A to B? In this episode, we explore how travel - done right - can strengthen culture, build deeper connections, and boost ROI in distributed teams.

Corporate travel is often seen as a perk - but what if it could be a strategic tool to build culture, foster deeper team connections, and improve productivity across remote teams? Our Host Leah speaks with Stephen from Roamr to explore how companies can move from "work from anywhere" to "work from everywhere."

They discuss how to make travel more intentional, inclusive, and cost-effective, especially in an era of tighter budgets and growing distributed teams. From engineering serendipity through shared taxi rides to using data to guide more meaningful in-person moments, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on travel’s evolving role in the workplace.

Whether you're a People leader, CFO, or remote team builder, this episode will inspire new ways to rethink how, and why, your team comes together.
