In this episode of The Way Work Should Work, we sat down with Matt Mullenweg, the Co-Founder of WordPress and CEO of Automattic to talk about the future of distributed and open source. Matt isn’t just a thought leader in today’s distributed workplace, he’s actually built a 1,200-person company scattered across 68 countries that to this day doesn’t have any offices.
We’ll take a deeper look at how he does it, why he thinks distributed work is a moral imperative, and where he thinks most companies land today on the Five Levels of Autonomy for Distributed Work. To listen in on the conversation, click here for the full episode.
“I believe that if you're able to allow people the freedom, autonomy, and agency to serve your customers in a way which provides them autonomy, then you should.
