There are many benefits to working remotely such the time saved from not commuting to the flexibility of where you can live. With that however comes downsides such as isolation and lack of connection with others. This week Jim and Bryant are joined by Kyle Ladewig, CEO of Out Of Office to talk about their solution for this.
Out Of Office started with the belief that you should be free to choose when and where you work, so you have more time for everything else. It is a fully remote, venture-backed startup that helps other remote workers feel less isolated through in-person and online co-working groups called Work Clubs.
While remote work provides flexibility when it comes to finding work-life balance, the problem is that pretty much all remote work happens alone. Even before the current situation, one of the biggest issues facing remote workers has been isolation and loneliness. Out Of Office’s mission is to give remote workers a great place to work and help finding people they can enjoy working alongside.
