Description: Remote work failed because most teams just moved the office online. Drawing on a decade of experience at GitHub—the company that pioneered remote-first software development—Open and Async provides the playbook for building distributed teams that actually work. Not by recreating the office from home, but by embracing the practices that remote-native teams have refined for years—working in the open, defaulting to asynchronous communication, and measuring impact over input.
