What makes the Remote Influencer Report unique?
At the center of this report are people who are dedicated to transforming the workplace as we know it. We looked at how they have changed the movement toward a more flexible working environment and how they continue to drive change. Some have built companies essential to a well-functioning remote work setting, as they provide tools or training. Others are focusing all their efforts on spreading the word about a remote-first world, promoting it through any possible channel of communication.
The people we have included in our report are highly passionate about remote work. All of them are doing the groundwork to inspire and help others to do the same, continuously learning and improving as they share ways to embrace remote work and tools to empower others.
How we built the report
We looked at our previous reports from 2021 and 2022 to analyse which individuals continued to have influence on the remote work topic. We used a combination of research and social listening to identify new names to add to our list. We cross-referenced articles citing remote work influencers to see who was really leading the conversation. To ensure we found the best people, we researched academics, analysts and workplace experts who have been ahead of the curve on remote work innovations for decades and took a deep look at companies that have been created with a fully remote model or have recently transitioned to a remote-first approach. We also invited our community of remote work advocates from all over the world to nominate outstanding individuals.
We partnered with 3 experts (who have been featured on the report a number of times) for our final evaluation process. Darren Murph is the VP of workplace design and remote experience at Andela and is considered a visionary in the field of organisational design. Monica H. Kang is not only the founder and CEO of InnovatorsBox but also the author of books like Rethinking Creativity. And finally, Chase Warrington is the Head of Remote at Doist, a pioneer of distributed work that specialises in productivity software. With their expertise regarding remote working innovators, enablers, and accelerators, they helped us select the best 150 experts and bring them together in this report.
