À propos de ce contenu audio

The classic guide to working from home and why we should embrace a virtual office, from the bestselling authors of Rework  
 
“A paradigm-smashing, compulsively readable case for a radically remote workplace.”—Susan Cain, New York Times bestselling author of Quiet
 
Does working from home—or anywhere else but the office—make sense? In Remote, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, the founders of Basecamp, bring new insight to the hotly debated argument. While providing a complete overview of remote work’s challenges, Jason and David persuasively argue that, often, the advantages of working “off-site” far outweigh the drawbacks.
 
In the past decade, the “under one roof” model of conducting work has been steadily declining, owing to technology that is rapidly creating virtual workspaces. Today the new paradigm is “move work to the workers, rather than workers to the workplace.” Companies see advantages in the way remote work increases their talent pool, reduces turnover, lessens their real estate footprint, and improves their ability to conduct business across multiple time zones. But what about the workers? Jason and David point out that remote work means working at the best job (not just one that is nearby) and achieving a harmonious work-life balance while increasing productivity.
 
And those are just some of the perks to be gained from leaving the office behind. Remote reveals a multitude of other benefits, along with in-the-trenches tips for easing your way out of the office door where you control how your workday will unfold.
 
Whether you’re a manager fretting over how to manage workers who “want out” or a worker who wants to achieve a lifestyle upgrade while still being a top performer professionally, this book is your indispensable guide.

The book is a complete opposite of the previous and great work of the authors - Rework. The same phrases repeated all over again, make this rather short book feel like never ending. There is nothing revolutionary in it, a bunch of more or less practical tips, that could be summarized in 30 min. They also feel selective - it is definitely more of a registry of tips and experiences than a complete analysis. Also references to the author's company feel a bit intrusive and unnecessary and in moments it sound more like an advertisement, than a useful real life examples.
On top of that the reader seems very unexcited and somehow bizarre to listen.
It is still probably good to be aware of the content of this book and if you're just setting a new business or trying to convince your manager to work remotely it might be good to grasp some new arguments. Or if you have been hiding from the world and from the internet for past decade and never thought working remote is a thing - sure, you will be amazed after this book. Other than that - buy Rework and skip this one.

After 'Rework', big disappointment
