Next week, I'll be in California for a team offsite, and I'm so excited. It's interesting timing with my manager leaving her role just before the offsite, making it now 12 managers at LinkedIn for me, 7 in the past 4 years!" "" "Even with all that change, I've found in-person time, especially given I'm fully remote, is a definite need. While I don't agree with the philosophy of constant in-person time -- I'm remote, after all -- I do agree that face time improves relationships and that strong relationships help get more stuff done. " "" "After being remote for most of my career, I've found that the minimum in-person interaction I need per year is about ~1 week, but ideally, it's more like a ~half week per quarter. With this upcoming offsite, it'll have been ~4 months since my last trip to the office, so I'm pretty close to where I want to be frequency-wise!
