This week, I happened to notice an article published by someone who does similar work as me.  He recommended tying hybrid/remote or work from home (whatever version of distributed work the company offers) to performance metrics.

I have several issues with this approach as I've had to live with this type of policy.  I broke my foot and ended up on leave, had a massive car accident which also required a medical leave, 2 deaths in the family, settling the estate from hell all while working full time and parenting two kids and helping my husband run his home renovation business.

Life happens.

Feeling as though you can lose your flexibility at any moment, doesn't make you feel valued and supported as an employee.

Hybrid/Remote Centre of Excellence

The Hybrid/Remote Centre of Excellence is a podcast where we talk about co-creating the future of work. It’s powered by questions.How do we bring the best elements of corporate from the past into the future? How can we design a workplace that will allow employees to thrive and integrate their work into their lives? What will the corporation of the future look like more importantly, what will it feel like? Will the future be hybrid or will we be working remotely? How will the office be re-imagined. And how does that affect leadership process procedure? Employee engagement and retention?Are you tired of the same old podcasts that rehash what you already know? Do you crave insights from those shaping our world with innovative ideas, all while understanding the vital concept of trust? Want to thrive in the digital disruption era, where trust is key?If you said yes to any of these, listen to the Hybrid/Remote Centre of Excellence podcast.It's not just about hybrid/remote—it's about everything, including the crucial role of trust. Society is shifting from hierarchical organizational trust to distributed trust and this impacts all aspects of life and work.Excellence is subversive. What future would you love to see? This is different from best practices - that's what everyone else is doing. What is your favourite personal vision of the future of work?We are witnessing the transformation of technology, society, and complex systems. Let's explore designing a flexible, human-centric workplace that fosters trust, mastering leadership in hybrid and remote settings. The status quo has its own risks - change is not a bad word but people adapt their worldviews only when the story of change resonates for them. Prepare to challenge assumptions, spark imagination, and take action, with trust and creativity as our guiding principles. Meet experts, leaders, and innovators sharing their expertise and stories about diverse experiences and skills necessary for the future of work. Chatting is my superpower. Let's chat.I'm your host, Nola Simon, a hybrid/remote futurist, an organizational consultant working with companies to create and implement hybrid/remote strategy that works well now but also sets the company and employees up for success in the future of work 5 or 10 years from now.
