I love this article from The Age about Atlassian's new "Connection Hub" in Melbourne. This space perfectly illustrates what Atlassian, and my friend Dominic Price in particular, have been advocating for years: it’s about purpose and intentionality. Here are some key points: - Purposeful Design: The Connection Hub isn’t about cramming people in for long video conferences or deep work sessions. It’s about fostering connections, serendipity, and mixing great minds and ideas. - Part of a Larger Initiative: The hub is a vital part of Atlassian's "Team Anywhere" strategy. It complements other initiatives aimed at addressing remote work challenges, like the "meeting problem." - Quick and Experimental: I love that this hub was assembled quickly and is being treated as an experiment. Whether it succeeds or not, the learning experience will be valuable, and the cost is minimal. - Voluntary and Flexible Attendance: People come to the hub because they want to, not because they’re asked to. It’s not about perks, but about the chance to mix and collaborate. Dom sums it up well: “We’re not making a bet on remote work, we’re making a bet on flexibility, and this is our commitment to that.” Check out the full article to see how Atlassian is leading the way in creating an open, employee-centric, and innovative work culture: https://lnkd.in/eQtWSYAs #FutureOfWork #RemoteWork #Flexibility #Innovation #WorkplaceCulture #Leadership #Atlassian

Australian software giant Atlassian champions a work-from-anywhere policy, epitomizing a "distributed work" model focusing on how work occurs, irrespective of location. Their 40-page report, "Lessons Learned: 1,000 Days of Distributed at Atlassian," reveals key insights: Employee Satisfaction: 92% of Atlassian employees find the distributed work model integral, featuring zero mandated in-office days. CEO Perspective: Surveyed Fortune 500 and 1000 CEOs (99%) see distributed work as the future, predicting its continued growth. Productivity Insights: Despite mandates for in-person work, 1 in 3 CEOs concede no impact on productivity, prioritizing "how" teams work. Hybrid Challenges: Part-time in-office arrangements are labeled a policy failure, lacking the benefits of fully remote or in-office setups. Innovation Focus: Atlassian emphasizes that productivity, innovation, and creativity hinge on "how to work," transcending the impact of "where to work." #Atlassian #DistributedWork #RemoteWork 🌐✨ 🔗 https://lnkd.in/evW6B8ye

We're all familiar with why distributed/asynchronous work can be difficult for organizations... 🙈 🙉 Not being able to see a facial reaction or hear intonation 🖨 Lapses in home-grade technology 🌎 And of course time zone differences leading to calendar misalignment and missed opportunities to collaborate Refreshing to see an organization as large as Atlassian (with an ongoing test of their new working dynamic..."We had 10 buildings which each had 500 people.
