The article examines the implications of remote work, highlighting that while it enhances work-life balance for fathers and independent workers, it diminishes community and interaction for others, particularly childless employees. These individuals feel isolated due to a lack of informal engagements, affecting their collaboration and workload management. Supervisors also face challenges in remote settings, missing critical informal communications that foster team cohesion. Researchers advocate for organizations to foster open communication to address these challenges effectively.
Remote work can erode trust and a sense of community, as it reduces face-to-face encounters and positive interaction between colleagues.
In remote management, it is easy to miss small hints and informal conversations in everyday life. This makes it more difficult for the supervisor to get to know their team.
