Remote work is failing us — Here’s why
“We’ve mastered technology. We’re failing at humanity.” Dr. Tim Currie, who’s led $1B in growth, says the real crisis isn’t productivity, it’s trust.
In his new book Swift Trust: Mastering Relationships in the Remote Work Revolution, Dr. Currie exposes what most companies refuse to admit. Remote and hybrid work are quietly unraveling culture, connection, and performance.
Just look at the numbers:
• 87% of remote employees say they’re productive. Only 12% of managers agree (Microsoft, 2022).
• Trust isn’t just strained. It’s collapsing.
• The result? Disengagement, misalignment, and turnover masked by busy schedules and Slack emojis.
Dr. Currie calls this the “digital perception gap” and he’s offering a practical, research-backed framework to close it before it’s too late.
He has expert commentary on:

• The hidden “trust bleed” happening inside remote teams and how to spot it
• The 3 silent killers of remote productivity no one talks about
• How “Swift Trust” is hurting long-term success and how to rebuild from the inside out
• What leaders must do now to protect performance, loyalty, and culture in a distributed world
Dr. Currie isn’t offering fluff or corporate platitudes. It is just real, actionable insight from someone who’s been in the trenches and he backed it up with a doctorate.
