Most companies and universities aren't built for the virtual world.
- They're filled with managers and professors who value face-to-face interaction.
- Workplaces exist precisely because sharing physical space fosters teamwork and sparks creativity.
- And as Axios' Ina Fried reported this week, there are plenty of jobs that just can't be done remotely.
WHY IT MATTERS:Â Sooooo true! we have many technologies to enable remote work, from videoconferencing to shared documents with collaborative editing. The problem is that humans want - need? - to meet face to face, to interact in meaningless fashion, to foster creativity, innovation, and develop a sense of community with fellow employees.
