Everything you need to know about our new world of remote work w/Wayne Turmel | Ep 168

Digital Nomad Experts - Beach Commute

The concept of "remote work" is not a new idea by any means - people have been working remote for decades. There was never any controversy over this small group of people working from home "telecommuting."

It's just been over the past ten years when both technology and the pandemic thrust tens of millions of people into an entirely new work environment with no nearly zero guardrails.

Companies had no idea how to structure their policies around an entirely remote workforce, so they winged it.

Employees had no guidelines for how to manage their focus, time, and professionalism, so they learned on the fly.

Now, we are coming out of the "trial by fire" phase and are taking stock on what worked well, what worked poorly, and where to go from here.

Wayne Turmel has been studying, writing, and training people/organizations on how to create effective remote work structures since the beginning.

In this episode, Wayne discusses:

• The near and long-term future of remote work.
• The problems with adapting to a fully remote work life.
• How companies need to adapt.

You can find Wayne's book The Long Distance Leader on Amazon.
