I've spoken to 2,000+ people about remote work in the last 12 months
A few predictions of what is likely to emerge before 2030
[ a thread ] 💻🏠🌍
These regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth. Better schools, faster internet connections are a must
Tools that enable asynchronous work are the most important thing globally remote teams need. A lot of startups will try to tackle this
This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships which overcome societal issues of loneliness and isolation
Companies who embrace it have a first-mover advantage to attract great talent globally. Companies who don't will lose their best people to their biggest competitors
Great workers will be the ones who deliver what they promise consistently
Advancement decisions will be decided by capability rather than who you drink beer with after work
The cost saving in real-estate at scale will be eye-watering. The productivity gains will be the final nail in the coffin for the office
The opposite will be true and become a big problem
Remote workers burning out because they work too much will have to be addressed
Likely staffed with facilitators and educators who train staff on how to maximize effectiveness
Organizing your work around your life will be the first noticeable switch. People realizing they are more than their job will lead to deeper purpose in other areas
Workers will do what needs to be done rather than wasting their trying to look busy with the rest of the office
Workers will exploit the freedom they have to organize things more freely in their day. Afternoon runs, morning meditation, 2 things a lot of people I know now do
No-code tools that enable workers to build bots that automate menial parts of their roles will be huge
Co-working, subscription clubs, will emerge that let workers who prefer that mode of work to operate from there
Associated business parks and services will spring up. This will happen even more rapidly as self-driving tech emerges
Expect a @Tesla product in this space
A recognition that we no longer have to sacrifice work for living, we can organize work around our lives
Communities become the most important most a company has
Huge opportunity to synchronize education to enable families to be more fluid in their locations
Conferences and quarterly networking events will become more important for cultivating in-person relationships
The most exciting companies I know personally all plan to hire remotely this decade
~90% of the workforces we've spoken to never want to be in an office again full-time
Companies are searching for ways to do this more effectively. Tools that enable others to write better will explode
