Naukowcy obalili koronny argument pracodawców. Upadł mit o pracy zdalnej
Badanie na ponad 7700 pracownikach obaliło tezy, że praca zdalna pogarsza dobrostan psychiczny i współpracę w firmie.
Najwyższy poziom dobrostanu w 5-stopniowej skali deklarowali pracownicy zdalni – średnio 4,22. Wśród pracujących hybrydowo było to 4,12, a stacjonarnie 3,89. Praca zdalna nie wiązała się też z gorszymi relacjami czy współpracą w zespole. Wyniki opublikowano w „Frontiers in Psychology”.
Establish structured daily check-ins: Many successful remote managers establish a daily call with their remote employees.

That's why modern 20+ remote group lunches aren't making it easier to build friendships
Remote work forces a writing culture. In person work encourages an oral culture
The challenges that come with remote work can be deceptive: If you’ve transitioned from an in-office role, it might seem like the best thing to do is to try and recreate all of the experiences that come with an office environment. But being remote is not the same as sharing a physical space. Instead of trying to replicate the in-office atmosphere, we must adapt—or even wholly reconsider—those experiences for the distributed context.
What aspects of being in an office do we care about the most?
The social aspects? Being able to walk up to someone and ask them a question. The organic conversations that spring up at the coffee machine. Being able to get everyone into a room to hash something out. Having a clear place that's "work" vs "not work".
The same rules apply to giving a well-formed and carefully considered answer.
