Does Remote Work Halt Innovation?

Is it myth or reality that remote work is going to halt innovation and collaboration in our workplaces?

We’ve heard lots of insurers express concern about the possibility, especially because they depend on collaboration to help their organizations build deeper and wider relationships with their agents and brokers to develop more business.

Deciding whether the concern is a myth or a reality is tricky, because it’s really up to the company and their organization.

Certainly, remote work can make innovation and collaboration more challenging.

It removes easy access to that organic, unstructured ‘white space’ where conversations naturally happen: grabbing a cup of coffee, passing in the hallway or chatting and building ideas after a meeting.
