My guest this time is Nadia Alaee, Sr Director, HRBP at Deel. Nadia Alaee leads the global HR Business Partnership team at Deel. She and her team develop deep partnerships with Deel’s leaders to support, engage and grow their teams. She partners closely with stakeholders across the organization and the People Team to ensure team members have the best experience from onboarding and through their tenure at Deel. Nadia has worked at tech companies including YouTube and Liftoff Mobile, but found her niche in the startup space, where she can build and scale organizations from zero to a hundred.
Questions for Nadia include:
- We’ve learned that remote work isn’t a fleeting fad, and 30% of new companies are fully remote. Tell us about how Deel has scaled as a remote company. What tools are required to grow a company across 150+ countries?
- Studies show that 40% of remote workers feel disconnected from their colleagues. How do HR leaders combat this to make employees feel included and meaningfully connected?
- How should HR leaders create a strong company culture when they have distributed teams? What tools do you use to make sure employee engagement is strong?
- What adages or HR principles need to be challenged? What ideas should replace them instead?
- As the nature of work continues to become more global – what other tips and tricks should HR leaders be aware of? What tools or products help you “hack” your to do list?
