High-speed networks have made remote work much more common than it used to be.I for one applaud it. Yes, some employers suspect that employees working from home, coffee shops and co-working spaces aren't all that productive. The same high-speed networks that make remote work possible also bring distractions like Netflix.Another big fear, supposedly, is that remote work leads to isolation. I think it's the other way around.I support working remotely because I need talent that I can't get in my close geographic area. I also think Agood Company thrives from the diversity that working remotely brings. I like the fact that I get to work with people from all corners of the world, from all walks of life. It gives me a broader perspective on things. Rather than isolating us, it brings us closer together.When I went to school, the war in Yugoslavia brought refugees to Sweden, my home country. Learning how to get along with people from a different background than my own made me a more open-minded and mature person. Less isolated. Less afraid of the outside world. And less fear is something we all desperately need today.
