Summary

Business leaders looking at their anywhere-work strategies should read this research to understand the challenges around staff compensation and costs. Your anywhere-work strategy will empower more employees to work outside of the office — and outside your city, state, or even country. But it requires you to consider whether to adjust the compensation of employees who move to areas with a lower cost of living. Technology companies — early adopters of anywhere-work strategies — offer some guidance on how you might approach your compensation strategy. Read Use The Lessons Of 2020 To Create Your Anywhere-Work Strategy and schedule an inquiry for more information. And if you’d like to share your anywhere-work strategy and experiences (on the record or anonymously), please contact J. P. Gownder at jgownder@forrester.com.
