About the episode

Quotes from the show
Companies can build powerful brands even though their customers see these brands physically, but they engage with the brand. Yet, the same companies have a serious problem doing the same thing internally. How can you build something so successful externally to build a worldwide community, but internally, they're saying, no, you have to come to the office?
The most important thing is intrinsic motivation: the values, the mission, the vision, and the why. These are the foundations for any company culture, not just remote.
I hear companies saying: office means culture. You can live in a relationship for 15 years and don't know each other. Just because you have proximity, you don't necessarily share values together.
