Amazon, Microsoft, Apple and Google Just Announced an Incredible Workplace Experiment<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This solves the key problem that Stanford researchers faced. The results should be fascinating.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

If you work for Amazon<\/a>, Microsoft<\/a>, Apple<\/a>, Google<\/a> or Twitter<\/a>, chances are you’re likely to be working from home<\/a> this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reason, of course, is the coronavirus. Amazon<\/a>, Microsoft<\/a>, Apple<\/a>, Google<\/a> and Twitter<\/a> are doing their part to try to slow or stop its spread, especially in certain higher-risk cities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, a viral crisis like this is a tragedy. But one small positive side-effect is that is that we should soon have a giant trove of data on the effectiveness of working from home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you’re an entrepreneur or business owner who has been considering greater workplace flexibility–after all, it’s what Bill Gates says is most important<\/a>–this might well be a very important impromptu experiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
