The science of making the most of in-person work - whether it's one day a week or five.
For the first time in history, millions of workers can do their jobs from anywhere - and the result is the most contentious workplace debate in generations. Now In Person offers the post-pandemic data that demonstrates why hybrid working is here to stay, and how to make it work for everyone.

Harvard-trained economists Natalia Emanuel and Emma Harrington are leading researchers on remote and in-person work. They've spent years tracking millions of work hours across industries, analyzing Fortune 500 companies, startups, tech companies, and call centres. Their findings?

Remote work is good for crossing tasks off a to-do list, but it erodes the quality of our work, stifles creativity, and has negative effects on mental health.

When we're together, our brain-to-brain synchrony increases 10x, accelerating creativity, mentorship, and innovation. That’s why Pixar animators, Nobel Prize winners, and Silicon Valley founders have come up with their best ideas face-to-face with one another.

Working side-by-side can be a powerful force to supercharge company performance. But many office policies miss this mark, focusing on employee attendance, instead of colleague alignment. Emanuel and Harrington offer solutions on how to craft the right policy. Backed with the latest research on the science of work, In Person offers tactical steps to make the most of in-office time, covering:

  • How to calculate the right number of on-site days for your specific organization
  • The playbook for preserving employee flexibility without losing the power of being together
  • Why some return to office mandates fail spectacularly–and how to succeed


After years of confusion, animosity, and conflicting mandates, In Person finally delivers the answers in a clear, evidence-based roadmap for making smarter decisions. Here, at last, is the data instead of the drama.

批評家のレビュー

In Person is essential reading for anyone who leads a company or a team today. This is the first book on remote work to bring systematic research to answer the question of when being face to face matters most — and when it doesn’t. Combining riveting stories and rigorous research, Emanuel and Harrington elaborate the human dynamics of proximity and show why face-to-face interactions cannot be replaced for some of our most important work. (Amy Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management at Harvard Business School and author of Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well)
Humans are wired to connect in person. That simple fact, now uncontroversial scientifically, has far-reaching but ill-understood implications for business. Friendship matters and working together matters even more. Bowling alone is bad enough; working alone is much worse. Despite its adverse implications for creativity and efficiency, remote work is more common than ever before. Yet acting individually to solve the problem is impossible. If only you show up, it’s not a meeting. The challenge is to find the right balance between the undoubted flexibility of working apart and power of proximity. This deftly written book combines hard science and persuasive anecdotes drawn from many case studies to offer well-informed practical advice. (Robert D. Putnam, Professor emeritus, Harvard Kennedy School and author of Bowling Alone)
For those with Zoom fatigue, tired of virtual hugs, In Person will be your bestie. It is an engaging volume packed with facts and a must-read for our hybrid world. The most important things in life cannot be done at a distance. Discover why.
