Hi Reader, This week we talk about remote work and how it has shaped the world in a post-COVID world. As someone who as worked remotely for over 15 years, I just can't imagine commuting into an office every day. And I'm not alone. COVID was the catalyst that to normalized remote work for the masses. Why does this matter?
