Inside Twitter’s Remote Work Evolution

Peter du ToitI'm the founder of FutureWork IQ where I spend my time assisting businesses to improve their climate literacy so as to understand the projected impacts from the expanding climate crisis and how to adapt their workplaces in the face of these impacts.

The announcement by Twitter recently that they are embracing remote work going forward didn’t just happen:

“We’ve already been on this path, and the crisis just catapulted us into a future state. [I believe] flexibility for workers is the “fourth industrial revolution” because it will fundamentally change the way people work. The future of work is offering employees more optionality.” – Jennifer Christie, Vice President, People at Twitter

(Quote source The Washington Post: Americans might never come back to the office, and Twitter is leading the charge)

Important: They had been planning this for two years. Successful remote work environments do not just happen. They require careful planning and design.
