Remote Working Works!
summary
Working remotely is framed as a learnable skill and a company is run 100% distributed with 30 employees across 15 states. A cited Sun Microsystems study finds a 98% reduction in carbon footprint from eliminating commutes. Work gets broken into three definitions of "work": effort, task, location, and managers are taught to prioritize task over location. That shift enables task-based roles, increases productivity and retention, and lets organizations hire beyond local geographies.
