Refactored #053: “Work Harder, Not Smarter”

On this episode of Refactored…

  • Case Study: NYC-based firm burns lease agreement in 2020, then doubles their renevue in 2022. “BuT rEmOtE dOeSn’T wOrK!!!1”
  • Chris cautions companies to think through a remote transition carefully (spoiler: that doesn’t mean don’t do it). The guys agree that remote work represents a fundamentally different paradigm of interaction compared to a central office.
  • The guys talk about the tech talent shortage dragging on for years.
  • Frank can’t stand it when leaders reject new ideas. Chris argues it basically boils down to poor communication skills and/or ego.
  • The guys discuss how to sell your finance / accounting team on doing new things that “cost” money.
  • … and much more!
