Nick is Professor WFH, an economist from Stanford University who has been researching remote working for over a decade.</p><p><br></p><p>Along the way we talk about how the biggest innovations in remote working are yet to come - and are coming from mindblowing places. We talk the changing expectations of Gen Z workers, why Nick doesn't believe we should be giving up our office just yet. We hear where the sweetspot of hybrid working is right now and why a little less freedom and a little more co-ordination is the order of the day.</p><p><br></p><p>I was desperately trying to get Nick on the podcast and to land Anne Raimondi at the same time is a wonderful stroke of luck.</p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://asana.com/resources/anatomy-of-work\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Asana's Anatomy of Work Report 2022 is available here.</a> <a href=\"https://wfhresearch.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">You can access Nick's work here</a>.</p><p><a href=\"https://makeworkbetter.substack.com/p/the-revolution-yet-to-come?s=w\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Make Work Better on Nick's work</a> **SIGN UP FOR FREE**</p><p><a href=\"https://archive.ph/iLfAr\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">More from Nick</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>A brilliant listen.</p><p><br></p><p>Some key findings from the Asana report:</p><p><br></p><ul><li>37% of workers say that they don’t have a clear start or finish time to their working day – rising to 53% for Gen Z employees</li><li>Managers spend the most time everyday on work coordination (62%)</li><li>As an organisation grows so does work about work.
