I think cutting out all but "business-critical" travel has done far more damage to innovation than any WFH disconnect.
I can think about several situations that could have been solved 6-12 months earlier (IMHO) if L4+ were allowed to travel as it was before 2020, and I work on ML low-level infrastructure. The savings would have been significant enough to show up on finance/CFO radar, but it was impossible to quantify and thus seek approval for those travels as it was not a well-defined deal / project.
- piva00 2y agoIt's the McNamara fallacy all over again. There are some practices workers know will help to deliver better/faster, those are really hard to quantify and get approval from the management chain, so they are disregarded because are hard to quantify, if it can be quantified it's deemed unnecessary.
