“Even in a hybrid world, even in a world of work-from-anywhere, we still need to occasionally meet colleagues in person for social purposes. It seems that, if the two locations are in the same time zone and are culturally similar, Zoom is [often] good enough. But, if you’re working with a colleague who lives in a faraway time zone or is culturally different from you, you have to get on a flight and meet [them] in person. Business travel is still required.”
– Professor Prithwiraj Choudhury, Harvard Business School
