Duty of Care and Lego Serious Play With Benjamin Bader | TNN22
When you hear digital nomads, you automatically think of people who have all the time in the world to travel yet earning a sustainable income. You think of flexibility. You think of FREEDOM. What most people don’t realize is that it takes a lot to be a digital nomad. As a laptop-wielding warrior, traveling to different countries means that you deal with timezone differences. You deal with safety concerns. Your ultimate weapon is to educate yourself of the risks in this lifestyle. And that’s where Ben Bader comes into play.
In this episode of The New Nomad, Ben talks about the importance of duty of care and duty of loyalty to companies and their employees. He, together with hosts Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, gave tips on how to place boundaries when it comes to working from anywhere. They talked about why it is not convenient for companies and employers to have their employees work the nine-to-five when there is a better choice, especially with the globalization movement. This episode is definitely filled with things that you, as a digital nomad, will find useful sooner or later.
