Successful remote work begins with understanding how to measure success.

Harvard Business Review’s article "How to Negotiate Remote and Flexible Work Arrangements with Your Boss" has been one of their top viewed articles.

 I'm not surprised. It shows that your employees have remote work on the brain.

As a leader, if this is something that scares you, you're not alone. It's natural to have concerns. You might expect performance to go down. (But the research tells us otherwise. Employees are actually more productive at home.)

Don't make the mistake of defaulting to vanity measurements like:

• Attendance 🗓

• The number of papers on their desk 📑

• How busy people appear to be 🏃

These factors don't predict success.
