A note from Christoph
I wish we lived in a world where everybody could work remotely with the best practices we know: async updates, managing on outcomes, regular team retreats. All the good stuff.
Unfortunately we don't live in that world: async is hard to keep up with, managing on outcomes is even harder, and the retreats take lots of time to organise.
The usual answer to this is: "Just hire the right people." Or: "Just apply to remote-first companies." The problem is: there aren't enough of either. And the trend is a return to the office.
What I hope to add with DoneThat is to make remote easier for the 90% of people and companies that find it hard, and to create an RTO alternative.
I can't fix the team retreats (happy to connect you to somebody) but what I can do is make it really easy to get visibility and trust, with minimal trade-offs.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this!

This is what it looks like
Your manager will only see high-level summaries of your day, nothing more. Enough to build trust, not enough to spy.
How to start
Trust takes months to build and seconds to break. This only works if you are ready to work from home, not chill from home.
Start using DoneThat in the office
Pitch it as a fun idea to try. Use email or Slack integration to share your summaries.
Propose to do an experiment
Could you be even more productive at home? Without distractions and commute.
Let the facts speak for themselves
The data will show that you are just as productive from home, so why not stay with that.
