The Future of Work is Already Here
As William Gibson famously said:
The future is already here it is just unevenly distributed
Remote work is quietly moving to dominate the workspace.
You may not realize the extent to which it is already here — 20m people across the EU and USA already operate remotely, while that number is projected to grow to 40m people by 2030 — but it’s more difficult to ignore its promise.
At a time when so many people are struggling to find purpose or meaning at work, the answer might be to let people work in there lives instead of living to work. At a foundational level, the time wasted commuting alone is a large enough environmental concern to incentivise the switch. More generally the benefits on both the worker and company side are inescapable.
