I view negotiating for remote work as an opportunity to highlight mutual benefits for both the employee and employer. When approaching this conversation, preparation is key. First, clearly outline how remote work will enhance your productivity and well-being without compromising team goals or deadlines. Present data or examples that demonstrate how you've maintained or improved performance while working remotely. Open communication is vital—be ready to discuss how you'll stay connected, collaborate effectively, and address any concerns about team cohesion. Lastly, flexibility is important; propose a trial period or hybrid model if full-time remote work feels too ambitious at the outset.
