The remote work debate often focuses only on leadership or the employee, but according to a new doctoral dissertation from the University of Vaasa, Finland, the prerequisites for success are found in a broader context. Johanna Jansson’s research in the field of human resource management reveals that successful remote work is built on three foundations: overall organizational design, the supervisor-subordinate relationship, and the employee’s own role. When these three foundations are in balance, both company performance and employee well-being can be promoted simultaneously.
