How will countries function in a world without borders?

Join Sondre Rasch, Co-Founder and CEO of SafetyWing, as he discusses building a global social safety net for the future of remote work. Sondre explores how evolving trends in remote work reshape industries, social structures, and even the way we view countries as products.

Alongside co-hosts Doug and Una, Sondre shares insights into leadership, creating company culture, and why remote work is the inevitable future.

Key Takeaways:

●      Countries as Products: Sondre predicts a future where nations compete like products, driven by increasing global mobility and economic trends.

●      The Power of Intentional Culture: Explicitly defined company values prevent office politics and create cohesive teams, as seen in SafetyWing’s flat salaries and innovative initiatives like Build Week.

●      The Evolution of Remote Work: Remote work continues to grow, offering companies access to global talent pools and changing the way people choose where and how they live.
