On the down side of WFH, are new hires. We hired one person and I feel it's taking a long time to get up to speed.
There is a lot to be gained by sitting around having lunch together once in a while.
In my opinion, zoom meetings are just a time sucker with people multitasking and not paying attention to the meeting.
One person, who I will call bobble head, just nods up and down. Contributes nothing at all. :)
I had 3 virtual meetings in a row one day and by the 3rd I can't remember for the life of me why any were even scheduled. :)

Subject: Remote work and Business Travel
Hello everyone! We are ready to start this Monday with our Huddle of the Week post!
Business travel decisions are changing as business travel is recovering. Significant factors such as cost increases and staffing challenges are slowing down recovery, and company-work-from-home policies are now taking precedence when it comes to making business travel decisions. While weekend demand is almost fully recovered, traditional shoulder days (Sundays and Thursdays) seem to have recovered more quickly than other weekdays. This is an interesting growth in travel demand that combines business and leisure.
We want to hear your thoughts is the comment section below!
- Do you think flexibility in remote work has been a good enabler for business travel?
- Are you working remotely, in a hybrid setup, or back to the office full time?
