TIME-Charter predictions for Future of Work in 2025. I mentioned how 2025 might be the year where team meetings are reimagined. Instead of weekly meetings in the office, teams will continue experiments with retreats, offsites and agentic-AI meeting bots: time.com/charter/7203661/202…

Grateful that the New York Times this week did a detailed feature on my research in Tulsa, OK with @TTeodorovicz & @evanpstarr on how WFA can help reverse brain drain and help smaller cities gain new talent: nytimes.com/2024/10/16/busin…
