Chase Warrington established travel and international experiences as his guiding priorities early in his career, recognizing the necessity of making significant trade-offs to achieve these goals. After a brief period in the corporate sector, Chase joined Doist, a fully remote company with 100 employees spread across more than 30 countries. As the Head of Operations, he has taken a holistic approach to remote work best practices and has become a prominent figure in the remote work movement, which gained momentum during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Chase and his family embarked on their international living adventure and are currently residing in Valencia, Spain.

In 2021, Chase launched the "About Abroad" podcast to offer advice and insights to those interested in living abroad. The podcast covers a wide range of topics from the mundane, such as visas and taxes, to more specific themes like Van Life and obtaining dual citizenship in various countries. Chase is an active presence in the community, frequently speaking at conferences and appearing as both a host and guest on numerous podcast episodes.

Please join me in welcoming Chase Warrington to this episode of Work 20XX.

I am thrilled that Chase accepted my invitation. His mission is to streamline the path to living and working abroad, making it smoother and less complicated than when he began his international journey over a decade ago.

Jack (John) M Nilles coined the term ‘Telecommuting’ when describing the trade-offs between using the phone and commuting. After the first 20 years of his career coordinating interdisciplinary technology teams in the development of top-secret optical systems for satellites and NASA, and spurred by a Santa Barbara urban planner's challenge, ‘If you can put a man on the moon, why don’t you do something about traffic?’

As the University of Southern California's first director for Interdisciplinary Research, he assembled various disciplines to study and validate Jack’s hypothesis that technology enabled tasks to be done in new ways, starting with trading telecommunications for commuting.

The development of the Policy on the Telecommunications-Transportation Tradeoff, 1974 Final Report (and book in 1976), was based on work with an insurance company, who wanted to reduce their ridiculously high turnover. This research is the basis for over 50 years of work invested in advancing distributed work in a world where ‘technology was never the issue; there were always more people who could do it than managers who would allow them to.’

I was thrilled beyond belief when Jack accepted my invitation. Ninety-one years young, still actively blogging and posting on the topic, what a treat to hear the story of how all this got started.

Michelle Ossmann, PhD, MSN started her career as a Nurse practitioner, delivering services to patients in need. She saw an opportunity to use design to better support more patients at scale, and just as importantly, the Nurse practitioners and other health care team members who face a storm of beeps, flashes, and technology intersecting with the care and emotions of the hospital ward.

As part of this work, she took a deep dive into the fundamental literature around hospitality, something that is deeply ingrained in human culture, across continents, religions, and time. It’s a set of shared values, fundamental to the human experience, and sharing food and breaking bread is the third of three attributes that define it.

I heard Michelle at another webinar (Thanks Mark Catchlove), and was so excited she accepted the invitation to share her knowledge with the Work 20XX community. The host-guest, hospitality frameworks are generalizable across several applications and a useful framework for those feeling challenged by the evolving workplace landscape.
