We are living through a revolution of the working world. While we’re probably a few decades shy of the AI revolution (which will again radically alter how we work in tandem with smart machines) the question of our time is how can we – humans – work most productively in a globalised world.
For a growing cohort, remote work is an answer to that question.
It is worth noting that remote work is not appropriate for every industry. Location-specific employment is an important part of our economy and roles where physical presence is essential cannot be substituted. However, it is also worth noting the hundreds of millions of people worldwide who have realised that location-specific employment may be a choice rather than a requirement.
Remote working has not come out of nowhere.
At Grow Remote, we have been building a community of members both online and offline since 2018 and we are committed to making remote work local.
In 2021, we see remote work as an unprecedented opportunity to revitalise non-urban communities and enhance wellness and productivity among workers. If people can work to their full potential from wherever suits them best, this will help balance other lifestyle priorities, including family, exercise, hobbies.
The Community team exists to facilitate connections and bring people together for events, both virtually and locally.
