# Remote work and human connection require intentional off-sites to coexist

## Claim
Remote work and human connection aren't mutually exclusive. They're just 2 things that require intentionality to coexist.

## Mechanism
Regular off-sites with no agenda, just genuine human interaction, build trust and make collaboration feel like partnership rather than obligation. Seeing each other as real people makes asking for help easier and leaning on each other natural.
