November 23, 2018 — We have two recipes on how to be a highly productive remote worker, given from different perspectives and in Spanish and English.
Raul works primarily from a stable environment, is married and has three children. His tips and tricks apply to everyone working from home, an independent office or a coworking spot. En Español.
Kat works primarily from a changing environment with varying WiFi/data speeds and connectivity, different languages and time zones. Her hints and hacks apply to everyone who travels one day/week/month or all year. In English.
We’ll have a Q&A session, plus invite the community to add “new ingredients” to the recipe based on their experience.
