Top PicksHand-picked articles, stories and ideas from the remote work community and beyond. Tragedy of Return to Hostile OfficesBenji Weber Return to office mandates can destroy the effectiveness of teams who have uncovered better ways of working by going remote. Tearing your teams apart and undermining their ways of working are tremendously damaging. Fabled watercooler serendipity will not make up for this. You’ll cause harm by forcing RTO on teams with cultures that benefit from remote. Please, instead, help your teams craft their best environment. Your Company Will Need Remote Work as Extreme Weather Gets WorseJohn Bai, Erik Brynjolfsson, Wang Jin, Sebastian Steffen, Chi Wan | Harvard Business Review Remote-work-readiness is an important form of flexibility that companies need to consider. The Covid-19 pandemic made this clear, but research shows that it is true of other forms of unexpected disruptions, too. Extreme weather events are harder on companies that aren’t able or prepared to work from home. As those events become more frequent, the ability to work remotely will become more important. As remote work soared in Seattle, this commute mode fell the mostGene Balk | The Seattle Times Three years later, the number of city residents who typically worked from home increased more than fourfold to 165,000, or 36% of Seattle’s employed residents, according to newly released census data. As remote work soared, every commute mode declined. And some fell a lot more than others. Could Remote Work Be a New 'Mommy Track'?Soumya Karlamangla | The New York Times A conversation with Sarah Kessler, a reporter who wrote about how work-from-home norms may make it harder for women to get ahead. Letting People Work From Home Is Good for Companies' Revenue GrowthMatthew Boyle | Bloomberg A three-year analysis, co-led by Boston Consulting Group, found that sales at ‘fully-flexible’ employers grew at a much faster rate than those that didn’t embrace remote work. How to Boss Without Being BossyJeff Wofford | Holy Ghost Stories Leaders command people. That’s kind of what a leader is: someone with the authority to direct the actions of others. But people don’t often appreciate being commanded. When you step into leadership you face this challenge: how do you direct the members of your team without offending them? How do you become a good boss, but not be “bossy”? Inside the strange, secretive rise of the 'overemployed'Aki Ito | Business Insider There’s a whole community of professionals online who trade tips about juggling jobs on the sly. They describe themselves as “overemployed” — and remarkably, they seem to be getting away with it. Citadel CEO Ken Griffin says remote work has created a 'wild card' workplace that makes it easier to fire peopleJane Thier | Fortune As if proximity bias weren’t a big enough problem, there’s another reason to be wary of avoiding the office altogether: If your boss doesn’t know you personally, they won’t stick their neck out to save your job. Medellín — The nomad's hidden gemAdam Hurwitz | HackerNoon For reasons such as its accessibility from San Francisco, Medellín is a great choice for my first solo adventure out of the wealth of places I haven’t visited. Hello, strangerWillem L. Middelkoop | Willem's Blog While enjoying my fresh wok lunch in Amsterdam, I noticed something odd: other folks coming in for something to eat ignored the person standing at the counter, preferring to order through a digital kiosk. The crazy thing about this? They are just centimetres apart! Black Friday, Cyber Monday DealsDaniel | NoDesk If you plan to shop on Amazon this holiday season, please do so through the links below.
