I’ve been meeting with some brilliant people for Distributed, my new podcast dedicated to exploring the future of work. The first episode is a conversation with Stephane Kasriel, CEO of Upwork, about how they built a distributed culture, and how flexible work will shape the future of the global economy.
Unlike Automattic, Upwork does have an office in Silicon Valley (albeit one with a remote receptionist!). It was interesting to hear how Stephane’s teams balance in-person culture with inclusiveness for all employees, no matter where they live. Read more about Stephane’s work at Distributed.blog, and subscribe at Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
Hey Matt, thanks for sharing! When I first read the title, I thought, “OMG he’s doing it! He’s using the Beaker browser and the dat:// protocol to distribute his podcast.. by seeding it out to his listeners!” Have you heard of dat and Beaker? I am actually seeding a static version my WordPress site with them. If you are at all interested I would be more than happy to share how I’m doing it. What could be more powerful than distributing WordPress sites by inviting the members of the community to seed sites they believe should be shared?!
I really enjoyed the first interview, and I’m looking forward to future episodes!
This is great, Matt. Looking forward to some great content.
