Start paying attention to the remote work conversation
Remote Work isn’t a fad, it’s one area of your business that you need to start paying attention to. The talent you’re employing could be of much better calibre if you start casting your net wider.
However, if your Tech & IT isn’t up-to-date or you don’t have the right framework for remote work, then now is the time to start thinking about it.

the discussion about remote work has
actually got louder and louder in recent
times not specifically because of what's
going on around the world with this
virus but mainly to do with how
businesses can move forward with their
technology you know this whole digital
transformation thing that I spoke about
a couple of days ago and so on and
remote work is basically the next tier
the next step of your business doing
well now what does that actually mean
well if you are a company who is who's
got like bricks and mortar you've got an
office and you want to employ someone
you generally look for someone between
where the business is now that's a tiny
tiny amount of people talent pool on the
global scale that you have access to
which is like nothing if your business
wants to do well you have to cast your
net much wider and that's where remote
work comes in - a lot of people are
asking for remote work I mean if I was
to work on my own remote work or p-part
from the money obviously will be quite
high up on you know on my negotiations
so remote work is actually very very
important right now
it's as important as when Netflix went
to Blockbuster and said we want to do
this and blockbuster said no we're a
blockbuster now they're not around
Netflix took over so you've got to be
careful of what you say no - and what
you don't think about with the new
technologies that are out there now
remote work is a huge thing right now
and you've really good if you're running
a business you've really got to make
sure that your technology your IT your
tech stack is ready for that
transformation into remote
because if you're not you're going to be
basically left behind so again the whole
point of what I do with tech minimalism
is not to in and they knew with
technology it doesn't have to be that
difficult it can be simplified it can be
organized and it can be efficient but
basically you've got to put the work in
at the beginning to actually go ahead
and do it now there are going to be
people within the organization that
don't like change and don't want change
but you know what without change you're
not going to move forward anyway I'll
leave it there today have a great day
as always keep it simple and remember
remote work is coming to bite you in the
ass
she don't doing something about it
anyway keep it simple and I see you
tomorrow Chapel bye bye
