What’s the first thing that pops into your mind about remote work? Pajamas all day? Flexible hours? How about communication? Yeah, we thought so! As cool as the ‘work from home’ life sounds (and it is!), it’s not without its unique challenges – and communication is right up there at the top of the list.

In today’s globally connected economy very few businesses of a certain size restrict themselves to just a single country. In fact, even small ‘mom-and-pop’ businesses sell their products online all over the world.

Almost all businesses, organizations, and even governments are under pressure to reduce costs and do more with less.
Whether you’re building a remote-first business or you’re transitioning to a hybrid model, a work from home policy is crucial for setting expectations and establishing guidelines.
