Have you ever felt like a manager worried you weren't working if they couldn't see you?
Do you feel like you should be online at the same time as everyone else on your remote team to get things done? Or are you free to design your work around your life?
It can be hard to process your own experiences without a frame of reference.
Enter Matt Mullenweg’s five states of remote work.
Matt co-founded WordPress and runs Automaticc. With 1,959 employees across 95 countries speaking 121 different languages, he's learned a thing or two about how to set remote teams up for success.
His five states of remote work explore the differences in how teams and organisations work together remotely.
In this short video, I explore what the different states look and feel like, along with some data on the ‘benefits and struggles’ people experience with remote work.
Which state are you in?
