Student Testimonials:
★★★★★ "Really well-done course. I've been a remote employee for about 3 years and have had success. I'm moving to a new team and wanted to gain some insight as this team is even more remote than what I have worked with in the past. The course provided a great overview of remote work and how to work as a team and reminded me of the success I have had by providing direction actions that supported working in a remote environment effectively." - Gregory Juno
★★★★★ "The course really gives a detailed perspective that helps with managing time and the expectations of the employers. Particularly, the pyramid of communications was a key area where I was personally clueless and this course gave me clarity." - Prakash Srivatsan
★★★★★ "Hassan really did an excellent job assembling and presenting this information. I found this course to be a valuable resource with actionable insights that I’ll be returning to yearly. I got some critical ideas from this course, and I know I’ll be able to use them to increase visibility and get promoted faster even though I am a Hybrid employee in an on-site first company." - Joshua Newman

Hassan Osman
"Short courses for busy managers"
My name is Hassan Osman and I help busy business leaders and managers work more effectively with their teams.
My focus is on three main 'future of work' areas: managing in virtual & hybrid environments, using AI to improve productivity, and enhancing communication among team members.
I write about those topics in my free weekly newsletters, "Leadership 80/20" and "AI for Leaders."
A little about me:
Most recently, I was SVP of Professional Services at NWN Carousel (a $1B organization focused on enabling hybrid work), leading a team of 200+ project managers and engineers on delivering cloud communication services to our customers.
Previously, I was a Director at Cisco Systems, where I led project and program management teams on delivering complex projects for Cisco's customers.
Prior to Cisco, I was a manager at Ernst & Young, where I analyzed failing projects at Fortune 500 companies, and recommended solutions to fix them.
I was also a research assistant at Harvard University, where I studied issues related to virtual teams.

This course really didn't teach me anything new, but I felt like if I was new to hybrid work, it covered the topic really well. I am a "veteran" of hybrid work, so I can validate that this is good material for someone new to this.

I was assigned this course from my company as we move toward a more robust hybrid work environment. It brought up several great tips for maximizing the hybrid experience while also keeping that visibility that managers and leadership like to see. Highly recommend!
By Jon Bowers on 11/10/2025
We manage engineers and this is an outstanding overview of ways to help our people be effective in a hybrid environment. I loved the quote about having people speak up and how a closed mouth does not get fed. I plan to use that with my people on their year-end reviews.
By Petar Obrenovic on 9/30/2024
Overall, course is very well thought out and presented. I can recommend it honestly to anyone who works hybrid. Docking one star, as based on personal preference I don't like working from home, so the premise that I am more focused at home doesn't apply.
By Carlos Trejo on 5/13/2024
Thank you for the course information. I was happy to see that me and my organization do many of the tactics/tips that you list. It was a good refresher, but you also brought out some good new ideas. I will be implementing much of what you lectured. Thank you.

I've taken many courses on uDemy and this was one of my favorites for the following reasons: 1) Topics were clear 2) Instructors voice, tone and delivery was clear and well timed 3) Content was well-structured 4) Summarization was concise Thank you! I hope to take more courses of yours in the future.

This is feels very "Hybrid 101" and I appreciated your defining the audience ahead of time. I am not your defined audience but I did enjoy the tips as reminders. They are still relevant in a smaller team setting. It felt like the focus was really on how to get people to notice you, which is a fine topic, but not what I was expecting. My only real criticism would be your use of "thrivability". This sounded nonsensicle and I almost turned off the training. I am happy I did not though.
By Cory Wyborney on 6/21/2023
I dislike some of the language used in this lecture, such as referring to a situation when you are overworked as "kill yourself with too much work". This is fairly heavy, and could be better stated. There are a few other leading examples, but this stood out to me.

The good: -This course is short and to the point, no fluff here! -Useful practical advice, highly recommended for people new to remote/hybrid work. -Good production value and clear explanations. Could be improved: -The course felt very geared towards individual contributors rather than more senior workers. Most of the advice is about how to be seen/influece those above you on the leadership hierarchy. As a middle manager my biggest challenge is influencing and measuring my peers and direct reports. Nevertheless, I still found very useful advice here and I think that no matter your level at your company you'll find at least 2 or 3 useful tactics.
