We are uncovering better ways of working remotely by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value:
- Communication and collaboration over siloing and specialization
- Asynchronicity and just-in-time interaction over instantaneous communication
- Timezones over countries
- Trust over micromanagement
- Accountability over fear
- Transparency over opacity
- Aligned autonomy over command and control
- Servant leadership over do-what-I-say management
- Physical distance over social distance (SARS-CoV-2 related)
- Measuring over just winging it
- Measuring results and output over measuring time spent and inputs
- Productivity over screen time/time in seat
- Thinking over reacting
Note to contributors, please add points in the same "xxx over yyy" format only.
We are in "brainstorm" mode now: feel free to add what comes to your mind, don't delete or change others' work (except grammar).
