My son saw me coming out of my office at home and asked what I was doing:
Me - Was just in a meeting!
2yo - I was in a meeting too
Me - Really? with whom?
2yo - Mom
Me - What about?
2yo - Food
At 2 years of age his meetings are already more fun than most of mine.

My coworker sneezed right next to me and didn’t even try to cover his mouth. After confronting him he just looked at me as if he didn’t understand why I was worried. Weirdly enough my wife also doesn’t think this is a big deal and told me to stop complaining about our dog.

Blaming remote work for low productivity means you’re optimizing and worrying about the wrong things. Efficiency comes from being able to do more with less, how is more important than where. To each their own but changing scenery won’t solve your problems.

Not only we can help but we’re working with local governments to share what we know on how to make it easier, faster and more affordable to start a new life abroad (visa, etc). More than power it’s human.
Switching from "we can't sponsor your visa" to "oh sure

Setting up a team for success is not about allowing them to run with your ideas, it’s about allowing them to fly with their own. Measuring success by your own terms is short-sighted.
