Another survey of hiring managers by the global freelancing platform Upwork found that one-fifth of the workforce could be entirely remote after the pandemic.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Remote work comes with unique challenges<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>No doubt, working from home offers many pluses, and has been embraced by many big employers. According to Sarah Kessler in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2021\/08\/05\/business\/dealbook\/remote-work-bias.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NY Times<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>&#8220;Around 10,000 employees at Google recently applied to work remotely or transfer to a different location, and the company approved 85 percent of the requests. The real estate platform Zillow says more women have applied for its jobs since it announced a year ago that most of its 5,900 employees could work from home permanently. The software company Slack, which also offered permanent remote positions last year, said that among recent hires the number of minority workers was 50 percent higher for those who planned to work primarily from home than for those who preferred the office.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The downside? The biases that can arise against remote workers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;<em>The employees who are working in person may get more visibility with leadership<\/em>,&#8221; said Sonja Gittens Ottley (in the above NY Times article), the head of diversity and inclusion at the software company Asana, which has more than 1,000 employees who will be allowed to spend two days a week working remotely when offices reopen. &#8220;<em>They might have more opportunities for mentorship and sponsorship.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the impact of remote work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Thompson, one potential outcome of the increase in work-from-home staff could be an increase in entrepreneurship:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>&#8220;Working from home, our connection to the office weakens, and our connection to the world outside the office expands. At the kitchen counter, hunched over your computer, you are as close to the people and communities on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram as you are to the Slack messages and chats of your bosses and colleagues. By degrees, the remote experiment can weaken the bonds between workers within companies and strengthen the connections between some workers and professional networks outside the company.<\/em><\/p><p><em>As people realize that their connection to the office is virtual, more Americans may take on side gigs and even start their own companies. The very tools that co-workers use to stay connected\u2014such as cultivating online a polished version of yourself to a group of people you don\u2019t see particularly often\u2014can be repurposed to go solo. Ambitious engineers, media makers, marketers, PR people, and others may be more inclined to strike out on their own, in part because they will, at some point, look around at their living room and realize: I am alone, and I might as well monetize the fact of my independence. A new era of entrepreneurship may be born in America, supercharged by a dash of social-existential angst.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"color:#0d7b14\" class=\"has-inline-color\">How Companies Can Improve Remote Work<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Leadership strategy expert <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/enriquedans\/2020\/06\/30\/what-if-working-from-home-could-be-different-to-how-its-been-until-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Enrique Dans<\/a> said in a Forbes article that to make remote working work better, we are headed towards: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>&#8220;The optimization of working practices, which means changing the synchronous-asynchronous balance: fewer rounds of endless video conferences and more short videos recorded for later viewing, much more Slack and similar communication tools, along with less time spent sitting in front of a screen listening to other people. Shared documents people can work on synchronously\u200a\u2014\u200acoordinating in the chat window\u200a\u2014\u200aor asynchronously are infinitely more effective than a marathon video conference. A spreadsheet, text document, or presentation that requires input from several people is an ideal solution for Google Docs, Office 360, or any of their competitors.<\/em><\/p><p><em>Not only can we can save on the time spent getting to and from work, we can also organize our workplace at home, helped by our employers, and we can afford to be much more creative.

Once office work and socializing went online, everyone looked terrible.
