If you have, you know, we have about 30% remote in product and technology, which is the organization that I run. And when you have such a high percent of remote people, you're actually really, really intentional with meetings. And so we shift to async collaboration as much as we can. And there are all these tools now, right? Like we use Loom, for example, for that.

Product reviews, I don't think are that much worse because we have a structured process. What you described is more like brainstorming and- Idea generation. Yeah, riffing on each other's ideas. And I think for that, for example, I right now live in Munich and I don't go to the office. It's like, I don't go to the office every day, right?

What I do, regardless if I'm in the office or not, if I have an idea, I will just quickly ping, if it's my direct or someone who reports to them or someone who reports to them. I work with all sort of people on my team. You don't need to only go to your directs. That's really important. And we'll just quickly get on Zoom and we'll talk about that.

As long as you don't make out of it like this whole meeting. So you need to leave a bunch of time on your calendar that is not packed with meetings so that as you go through your creative process, you can quickly grab people and talk to them as part of your day.

uh this is hard well that says it all um i think it's hard because of like the access to thailand that i told you right that's the number one thing that's that's the number one thing the other thing is the process versus uh initiative like i think if you go back to that spectrum that i described like you can get stuff done with initiative or process

and you come to the middle, I think my experience is that the companies in the US tend to be closer on this side towards initiative, and companies in Europe tends to go towards the process. Again, it doesn't mean that you can't have a company that thrives on initiative and has minimum process in Europe. You just have to be much more intentional because it's not the default.
