Remote workers are like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get! This week Andrew recaps his past travels and inspires future meetings.

Hey, Welcome Back!

I’m fresh from my travels and glad to have you with me.

Lately I’ve been thinking - what does it mean to be a remote worker? People like us are often put in little boxes. Stereotypes are everywhere!

These one-dimensional perspectives can be confusing at best, and harmful at worst. And they’re completely devoid of the diversity that makes remote work such a force in the world today.  

I’m back from meeting Latin American remote workers, and I realized something big.

As long as the world typecasts remote workers as a negative thing, they’ll never fully open up to the positive change we bring. We have a leading role to play!

This limited understanding of the unique experiences and contributions of extraordinary people has got to go.  

We are the humans of remote work, and we will not go quietly back to the office!

It’s episode 35 and I’m back in New Zealand this week.

In this one, I share some stories from my travels, and reflect on the diversity that makes each of us an important strand in a colorful tapestry.

I want to celebrate these stories, and weave yours in too. So, if like me – you believe that the future of work is Out of Office – let’s show the world why.

šŸ“½ļø This Week on Episode 35:

šŸŽ‰ Holy pickle ball, we hit 12 million! Let’s celebrate!

šŸŒ A swift recap of my time with you in Latin America

šŸ”„ Brace yourself - a big change is coming to Out of Office

šŸ—½ Find out who has inspired me to tell more of your stories

The world doesn’t know what it means to be a remote worker yet.

Together, you and I can change that.

By the way, there’s no collective noun for remote workers.

Any suggestions? Enjoy the episode!

Andrew
