Distant: Workplace Not Required
by David Heinemeier Hansson and Jason Fried
The guide was written in 2013, so an actual thought-leader masking most of which you’ll have examine, heard about earlier than. Written in true Basecamp model, with brief, sharp chapters and daring statements. There are some “advocacy” chapters (together with one on how distant permits you to be “Catastrophe prepared” – no point out of a pandemic for example although!) and a few with sensible recommendation on collaboration and wellbeing.
A few of my favorite quotes from this guide:
“Progress is a pleasure greatest shared with co-workers.” (Hoorah for seen teamwork!)
“You, the distant employee, are in charge of your social interplay – when it occurs and the way a lot of it you want.” (Hoorah for asynchronous interactions!)
“Distant work is about setting your group free to be the perfect it may be, wherever that may be.”
