Vinícius Coelho: Know the Team, Growth and Impact | Work 20XX with Jeff Frick Ep63 from Running Remote

Vini Coelho recently added Chief of Staff and VP Operations to his People and Culture role at Time Doctor, 140 people spread across 40 countries and 24 time zones. And Vini's met them all.

Please join me in welcoming Vini Coelho to the Work 20XX podcast.

In Austin for the second year collaborating with the team at Running Remote, we sat down with Vini to learn how he does creates and manages culture across such a wide georgraphical and cultural spread.

Time Doctor uses its own workforce analytics tool built to track productivity and in the act of usage behaviour, converts it from what might be percived to be a survealance too, into a trust-building platform.

Vini also makes the case that a company is a sports team, not a family, and explains why that distinction matters for how people actually commit to their work. We talk through what career growth looks like when the org chart is flat and vertical promotion is not a given, and Vini's answer is lateral growth: more responsibility, more influence, more relevance, even without a new title attached.

The most surprising thread runs back to his time as a sommelier in a 2-Michelin-star restaurant. Hospitality taught him that the job was never the paperwork. It was the people. That is the whole philosophy, transplanted into HR at scale.
