If your culture is like most organizations, you have your own language. Whether you are in the communications business, the law profession, or medicine, over time people develop a vocabulary specific to what you do; it is understood by all.

The remote work trend is only becoming more common every year, as Wi-Fi becomes more readily available, and more jobs can be done online.

Even that is changing, however, as more teams are discovering the perks of working fully remotely, including reduced costs and better opportunities to recruit top talent.
