Design

Hi community! New here

I moved to Denver from LA a year ago to lead design at DISH and SlingTV. Excited to dive into this local community. 20 years in this industry - I’ve seen a lot of ups and downs, worked at some really interesting places. Mostly established companies. A mix of entertainment/media and e-comm. I have a lot of experience building teams & creative design cultures, and designing cross-functional processes that designers and researchers can thrive in so everyone can do their best work. I’d love to learn from everyone here and I’m open to advising/mentoring.

The Financial Times just covered our research highlighting three key points.

1) WFH is associated with higher productivity: $20,000 a year for each extra remote day a week (Figure 5). This is high quality data - CEO/CFO responses on WFH matched up with audited company accounts for sales, employment, capital and materials. Sample of 1,116 firms, robust to industry controls.

2) WFH is associated with lower wage growth: 0.5% lower wage inflation for each remote day (Figure 6). This aligns with Linked-In data showing the supply of remote workers now exceeds demand, so remote wages are gradually drifting downwards.

3) WFH is here to stay: leaders predict flat levels in 2028 vs 2023 (Figure 1). This makes business sense - points (1) and (2) show how WFH is becoming increasingly profitable for firms with higher productivity and lower costs.

Thus, WFH is a win-win-win, benefiting employees, firms and society.
