Makers 🆚 Managers: The Battle Over Remote Work | Postcard

Postcards are short current episodes, addressing a topic that currently interests me, host - Heather Smith. In today's postcard, I share an article that resonated with me, from the Todoist blog post written by Fadeke Adegbuyi. Makers vs Managers: The Battle Over Remote Work Managers want to go back to the office.

While managers and makers across companies often agree there’s a problem, they’ve simply added band-aid fixes like “No Meeting Tuesdays” or “Work from Home Wednesdays”.  Offices have been built around the needs of managers at the expense of makers; the move to remote work offers a rare opportunity to shift the balance.
