Why Remote Will Grow?
I am still on vacation, but I wanted to share with you an interview with Rob Sadow on the Flex Perspectives Podcast. Rob's company tracks the flexible work policies of more than 4,500 companies. Here are a few highlights from our chat:
- Lockdowns showed that many more jobs could be done remotely. But they also showed us that many jobs are completely unnecessary.

We also discussed the evolution of careers, risks for cities and real estate investors, and projections about future risks and opportunities. Watch the full interview on below or YouTube, or listen on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Have a great week.
