COVID-19 has forced us into a global remote working experiment.
Companies were quick to download Zoom and Slack, but tools are only as good as how you use them.
When it comes to remote work, few companies do it better than Automattic—the company behind Wordpress, which powers 35 per cent of all websites on the internet.
Automattic has 1,170 employees across more 75 countries and is worth US$3 billion. And here’s the kicker: the company does not have an office; its employees collaborate almost exclusively online.
Automattic’s founder Matt Mullenweg (hence the double-t in the company’s name), sees five levels of sophistication when it comes to remote teams.
In this video, I talk through the five levels of #remotework.
