  1. A couple of noteworthy quotes:

    "Telecommuting is one important way of stretching our dwindling oil supplies and forestalling global warming while we invent viable and sustainable alternatives to those portents of disaster”

    Remember, Jack wrote that fine article back in 2006... What were you doing back then? 🤔

  2. “Telecommuting is the substitution of information technology for the daily commute to and from the office” - Management by Results 👉🏻 jacknilles.substack.com/p/disa

    The one & only Jack Nilles wrote that piece back in 2006. Pretty crazy, eh?!? 🤯 Now, read through it carefully, while we're in the midst of this week's nasty heat weave 🥵, and ask yourself:

    What are we doing wrong?!?! 🤦🏻🤬

  5. Although perhaps my favourite:

    "When people aren’t in the office, it’s harder to command and control. Leaders can’t intimidate by hovering over cubicle desks and slamming doors. They can’t establish their dominance by summoning people to a conference room and pounding their fists on the table. They can’t even make direct eye contact to stare people down"

    Choose wisely (with your feet) who you're working for👌🏻😎

  6. A couple of noteworthy quotes:

    "They see any kind of remote work as a threat to their authority and admiration. They want to be worshipped at the office altar"

    "[…] self-centered leaders tend to struggle with the idea of employees making independent choices about where to work"

    Like I said, incredibly useful reminder showcasing some early signs to watch out for when working with sociopaths / psychopaths

  7. "[…] ordering people back to the office full time is a power and status move. It’s a signature strategy of leaders who exhibit narcissistic qualities" 👉🏻 archive.ph/QpMio

    Fascinating new research acting as a friendly reminder: Whenever your manager asks you to return to the office, because of, you know, productivity, culture, innovation, etc. you may actually be dealing with a sociopath / psychopath 😤🤯🤬

  8. @Valdis Many thanks, Valdis! 🙏🏻😊 Yeah, I saw that article earlier on this morning here in Mastodon, we talked about it in the community as well.

    It looks like the masks are *finally* coming off, right? Specially, with poignant quotes like this one:

    "They see any kind of remote work as a threat to their authority and admiration. They want to be worshipped at the office altar" 🤯😱

  10. "We taught the remote workers to be proactive about communicating with their group members; not to wait in hopes of receiving calls. Often, you can tell whether someone is feeling well or poorly just by the tone of voice. We taught the managers of remote workers to check that effective communications were happening"

    Oooh, for those at the back ... Jack coined #Telework in 1973!!! 😍👍🏻

    Does that ring a bell? 🤯👉🏻 #EnergyCrisis

  11. "In my opinion, given the technology available today, 90%+ of most business situations (other than the obvious hands-on things like your annual medical checkup) do not require face-time" 👉🏻 jacknilles.substack.com/p/face

    You know what's pretty crazy about that quote ? It was written by the father of the concept of #Teleworking, Jack Nilles, back in 2010! 😳🤯

    Yeah, we know, #RemoteWork is nothing new, and yet ... 🤔

  12. 🧵 2/n

    In this research, we exploit a unique data set and approach using spatial design as a variable of interest. We compare nine workplace designs for companies in the financial industry completed before 2019 with nine cases finished post-pandemically. All were designed by AIS Interiors to control for potential biases arising from distinct design styles.

  14. “When employees know that recovery is valued rather than merely permitted, they return more focused, more engaged and better equipped to do their best work. […] these practices communicate something critical about organizational culture. They tell employees that leadership recognizes they are human beings, not simply units of output”

    From de- to re-humanisation of the workplace 💪🏻😎

  15. A couple of noteworthy quotes from that article, worth while reflecting some more on:

    “[…] cognitive restoration is not a luxury, but rather a prerequisite for sustained performance. Human beings are simply not able to operate at peak intensity indefinitely. Periods of recovery improve attention, creativity, motivation, decision-making and overall job performance”

    #Management #Leadership #DistanceWorking #RemoteWork #HybridWork #DistributedWork #FlexibleWork #Burnout

  16. “What if the practices being eliminated are some of the very things helping employees remain productive in the first place?”

    In the midst of the stupidity behind constantly perpetuating, to the extenuation, the "Cult of Busyness", this short piece 👉🏻 hrexecutive.com/as-burnout-ris is a rather refreshing read.

    Does #Management / #Leadership *truly* care about their employees' overall well-being? 🤔

  17. “[…] when policies are geared toward mothers or parents, managers have worse perceptions of remote working in regard to commitments, productivity, team spirit, and promotion opportunities”

    👉🏻 fastcompany.com/91547074/bosse

    Dehumanisation of work at play? 🤔 Gosh, the lack of #empathy & understanding of #caregiving needs & wants by employers is just staggering! 😤

    What a bunch of ars*h*les! 😡

  18. “Stressful circumstances, long commutes, caregiving, disability, a toxic manager, push people to negotiate for WFH in the first place” 👉🏻 theworkforward.substack.com/p/

    And, yet, all we keep hearing / reading about is how #RemoteWork killed entry-level jobs #GenZ and is making us all feel lonelier, more isolated even 😤

    Gosh, the nerve! What a bunch of BS! 😡

  20. “Gen Z workers love to yap—or chit chat for extended periods of time—which experts told Fortune’s Emma Burleigh likely stems from the generation’s isolation and loneliness during the pandemic”

    Ah-ha! Of course, you see? It's much "easier" to gossip while on-site and get away with it than having to annotate such gossip through social, digital tools for everyone else to see it AND remember 😜👍🏻

    It's all about work, work, work, right? 🤔😝

  22. "#GenZ is actually the most enthusiastic generation about working in the office and are there 3 days a week" 👉🏻 fortune.com/2025/05/03/gen-z-m

    “They say going to the office gives them the chance to learn more from coworkers and build friendships”

    Of course! Except ... 👇🏻🤔

    “Workers aged 35-54 reported the lowest satisfaction with being in the office, citing environmental concerns, and desires for better technology, flexibility, and food”

  24. […] remote work may even be a risk factor for AI displacement, since managers who mainly interact with reports over Slack may view their work as more automatable”

    See? That quote alone hints the issue is not #DistanceWorking but more along the lines of, yet again, another clear exhibit of poor #Leadership skills when managing virtual teams.

  26. "What if remote working, not AI, is to blame for weak junior hiring?" 👉🏻 archive.is/6f8YT

    Oh, seriously? You couldn't possibly think of a better argument to whitewash #GenAI within the workplace than to blame #DistanceWorking for not hiring enough young talent, eh?

    Shame on you, FT! 😡

    Do better! 😤

  28. Remote Work funktioniert dann am besten, wenn Prozesse, Struktur und Tools perfekt zusammenspielen.

    Mit der richtigen Lösung wird Zusammenarbeit online nicht komplizierter, sondern einfacher, effizienter und persönlicher.

  29. “During the Corona period, we developed many systems of work from home, online meetings and video conferences, and we even became accustomed to them. Today, the demands of the times are such that if we restart these systems, it will be in the national interest. We must prioritise work from home, online conferences and virtual meetings again”

    Why isn't this recommendation👆🏻happening in #Europe? 🤔

  31. "[…] if you haven’t embraced remote or hybrid working yet, the fuel price crisis could be the motivation you need to do so"

    One for those at the far back 👉🏻 inc.com/kit-eaton/rising-fuel-

    "It can reduce pressure and financial burdens borne by your staff, and it conveys a certain level of trust from executives that employees will work in a dedicated manner for the good of the company" 👈🏻 You reckon? 🤔

    And yet...? 🙄

  32. "Leaders found that employees felt more trusted, valued, and respected when they could work from home, plus they saved a meaningful amount money on clothing and transportation" 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

    "Working together, employees and leaders cocreated a new working model they called “home-centric.” The default was for people to work from home, but employees would come together for onboarding, training, and culture-building activities" 👌🏻😍

    #DistanceWorking #RemoteWork #HybridWork #DistributedWork #FlexibleWork

  33. "Most companies treat employees as a cost to be managed rather than customers who choose how much of their personal energy and effort to bring to work every day"

    If only managers / leaders would pay more attention to employees' needs & wants AND try to meet them along the way, right?

    This article 👉🏻 sloanreview.mit.edu/article/wh is quite an interesting read on shaping up the #EmployeeExperience at the workplace.

  34. RE: mastodon.green/@peterdutoit/11

    I'd go one step further, if I may ... Why aren't workers themselves "demanding" to both their employers AND governments to have multiple days working from home for the next foreseeable future establishing #DistanceWorking as a new operating model (for those who can) to help mitigate some of the direct pain they are suffering from (Read ... $$$)

    Have we learned anything? It's not as if we are back to 1973, right? 🤔

  36. Some more noteworthy quotes from that article:

    “Leaders establish presence through concise thinking, calm tone and intentional listening” [Oh my! 🤯]

    “In hybrid and distributed work, executive presence shifts from being felt in the room to being trusted at a distance” [Via meetings galore? Really? 😱]

    “Presence isn’t the power of your voice, but the depth of your silence” [BOOM! 💥 Leaders, pay attention, please]

    #DistanceWorking #Leadership #RemoteWork #DistributedWork #HybridWork

  37. "No longer confined to physical rooms, presence is now established through clarity, consistency and intentional communication across digital spaces"

    This 👉🏻 forbes.com/councils/forbescoac is quite an interesting read, if anything, because it proves we haven't learned much over the last 6 years about #DistanceWorking, if the focus from #Leadership teams is still real-time communications with their teams via meetings galore 😤🤯😔
