Is Innovation And Disruption “Actually” Improved By Being In-Person?

New Research Shows Something Surprising In Remote-Work Trends

The battle for Remote-Work continues as Businesses continually Fail to actually enact Return-To-Office “Mandates” (months later).

New research has been coming out on the subject.

However, what does the research show?

You need to realize something IMPORTANT before I dive into the subject.

The Quality of the Research will depend on how well thought out the research is.

Sadly, there is a LOT of terrible Research that exists.

Many Research papers are not well thought out, creating data that doesn’t “prove” anything, yet make claims that aren’t truly backed up.

Other times, research is designed in a way to skew Data purposefully to get specific Results (usually paid for by a third party that “needs” a certain outcome).

So, before you take a Research Paper’s Abstract Section as “gospel truth”, look at the Data to see what they actually are testing.

Case in point, there’s been some “Research” regarding Remote Work that has said that Teams are “supposedly” less Innovative or Disruptive than In-Person Teams.
