Work From Anywhere Series | Episode 1: What’s Next?

For many companies, tax and other similar risks were cited as reasons for saying no to work from anywhere. But how can companies (a) hire from anywhere and (b) facilitate temporary international remote work? Airbnb’s recent remote work policy caught our attention.

To discuss this and more, we were delighted to be joined by Siobhan Cummins, Strategic Mobility Advisor, Sarah Hawley, CEO & Founder at Growmotely and Rina Montalvo, Head of Talent Mobility/Immigration & Flexible Work Program at Twitter.

We recently launched our Work From Anywhere White Paper and in this episode we speak with giants of the Global Mobility and Business Travel industries to get their thoughts on some of the key takeaways as well as their views on the future of work from anywhere.

We were delighted to be joined by Olivier Meier, Principal at Mercer and named as one of the top Global Mobility thought leaders in the world in the Benivo Top 100 Global Mobility Service Providers of 2021 and Johnny Thorsen, VP Strategy & Partnerships at Spotnana who was named as one of the 25 most influential people in the travel industry by Business Travel News (BTN).

In this episode, the panel explored the evolution of international remote work and how kids education is a big part of the discussion in relation to the mobility of nomad families.

This week’s episode was moderated by John Lee of The Work From Anywhere Team and we were delighted to be joined by Paul Bennett, two time entrepreneur and founder of Cicero Learning, a marketplace where families can find private teachers for homeschoolers, worldschoolers and location independent families; Hope Paterson, entrepreneur with 20+ years experience who has a passion for education and travel and Marcos Carvalho, co-founder at Boundless Life which offers a network of thoughtfully designed communities in beautiful destinations around the world where families can develop connections, work remotely, and be culturally immersed while children benefit from a forward-thinking and transformational education system.
