A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

It's easy to laugh at the term 'Future of Work Expert' because it is inherently ridiculous but some of the actual individuals cited here are people that CEOs will listen to:

  • Annie Dean, a panelist and the global head of Team Anywhere at software firm Atlassian, and Meta’s former director of remote work
  • Robert Sadow, Scoop’s ('Powerful planning tools for hybrid employees.') CEO and cofounder
  • Cara Allamano, who heads up people operations at management software firm Lattice—which, like Atlassian, is remote-first

All of these people are very clearly on the 'remote' side of the argument but they are also in leadership positions where they are walking it, not just talking it. All of their companies provide tooling solutions for orchestrating staff and projects. At least two of these companies are successful. We already know that the data does not back up RTO mandates. We're on the Sarah Cycle/Change curve: We've done Shock and Anger, we are now at the 'Bargaining' stage.

It's good to know that there are people in positions of influence who at least have an ounce of logical thiking capacity.
