Why Remote Work Can Change Both the Workplace and the World
This is a segment about why remote work, and the diversity it allows, is good for business—and good for the world.
The big idea: Remote work might have been a reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic, but forward-thinking companies now recognize its potential to transform the workplace by helping employees achieve better work-life balance and by breaking down boundaries.
The so-what: All businesses benefit from diversity, and the remote workplace, by eliminating geography in hiring decisions, can open the entire world of talent to hiring managers.
Key messages:
- Rather than pushing back against remote work now that the pandemic has eased, forward-thinking companies recognize its benefits to their business and the world at large.
- Remote work allows employees more time to nurture their lives outside the workplace, bring those talents to their community, and live happier, more balanced lives.
- Remote work means that rather than relying on talent within the business' geographic area or potential employees' willingness to relocate, companies can hire the best people regardless of where they live.
- This also means that businesses can bring opportunities to all corners of the world, allowing employees to remain engaged with and keep their talents in their communities, strengthening those as well.
