A lot of times these problems boil down to people not being willing or able to dedicate the time every day to work on a project or communicate properly online. Often a combination for underfunded projects. And lack of written communication ability can contribute strongly.
I don't think that we should really blame remote for all of that.
- ChrisMarshallNY 3y agoI wasn't blaming remote for anything. It was an observation of what happened. Prescribing a great deal of process and overhead is always a "solution," but, in my experience, it doesn't always have the best results. I used to work for a Japanese corporation, where Overhead was a religion. They got stuff done -often, impressively so, but it could be very painful, and not always as efficiently as we would like.
