For businesses everywhere, covid completely disrupted how we show up to work and whether we have to show up to an office at all. The world of work today is incredibly complex – we are far from the traditional 9 to 5 Dolly Parton sang about.
Remote and distributed work has unlocked both personal benefits for employees and financial wins for employers.
But this has created a new challenge. How do we maintain the gains of remote work without sacrificing human connection and the need for teams to achieve together?
In order to sustain a distributed work model, we need to have the best of both worlds. Collective benefits like connection with individual benefits like flexibility and better work-life balance. That’s why Sophie Bailey built WorkTripp®.
How is remote work changing how companies compete for talent? What challenges are teams facing within this remote/hybrid/in-office model? In this episode, the founder and CEO of WorkTripp® shares the idea that sparked her business, and how she’s helping businesses navigate this new world of distributed work.
