Prithwiraj ‘Raj' Choudhury, Lumry Family Associate Professor at Harvard Business School, shares insights from years of research included in his newly released book “The World is Your Office: How Working from Anywhere Boosts Talent, Productivity and Innovation”. As a scholar of geography, talent, and innovation, Raj describes real world examples to illustrate how decoupling location from labor creates options and opportunities for employers and employees. He explains the economic benefits of 'working from anywhere' models for local communities. Raj emphasizes practical hybrid frameworks and team-based decision-making to unlock innovation, as well as AI and digital twins to offer more flexibility for all workers.   TAKEAWAYS   [01:40] Raj studies computer science and engineering but would have loved to study literature. [01:57] As a singer-songwriter, Raj discusses writing songs in Bangla and playing in a band. [02:47] Raj starting out at IBM and then starts consulting and travels the world. [03:19] Switching to academia give Raj flexibility and creativity to focus on research and poetry. [04:32] Raj becomes a migration scholar researching the match of distant talent with work. [06:17] Infosys' hiring from small Indian towns revealed underutilized high-potential talent. [07:08] Challenging early-career postings develop superior problem-solving skills that boost Indian bureaucrats' later careers. [09:05] Gen Z can benefit from digital nomad visas to travel and work globally and build connections.   [10:25] “Work from Anywhere” enables a person to choose the town, city, or country to work in.   [10:54] Raj stresses in-person connections so “working from anywhere” is often not working from home. [12:15] Tulsa's remote worker program is a win-win benefitting individuals and the community. [12:50] Lower cost of living and greater community engagement make smaller cities attractive for remote talent. [13:51] Work from anywhere helps reverse brain drain as talent returns to or remains in smaller towns. [15:57] Raj frames three hybrid models for teams based on meeting frequency and venue flexibility explaining when “working from anywhere” is feasible. [19:33] Performance should be measured by work quality, not time, presence, or attendance.   [20:16] Managers remain essential for setting direction and motivating teams—not monitoring activity. [22:33] Managerial span of control can increase with remote tools, leading to leaner organizations. [24:46] Generative AI can codify individuals' knowledge into scalable personal bots. [25:27] AI-driven bots can extend a person's ‘human capital' across time zones and workloads. [26:30] Questions arise about bot/IP ownership—e.g. who controls the bot if an employee changes jobs. [28:29] Bots can assist with non-personal tasks, but human connection remains essential for leaders.   [30:41] Raj emphasizes in-person gathering benefits rather than debating where events are organized. [31:20] Research shows people cluster by identity at in-person events unless serendipity is engineered. [32:09] Shared transportation like taxis can build bonds across silos and increase connection diversity. [33:23] “Virtual water cooler” meetings with senior leaders improved intern ratings—but bias remained. [35:40] Raj's book outlines Working from Anywhere: the business case, solutions for the challenges, and future possibilities. [36:27] Digital twins make work from anywhere possible for blue-collar roles such as in factories and hospitals. [37:30] Remote operation of facilities from centralized hubs is becoming feasible and more widespread. [38:40] Work from anywhere extends flexibility to all worker types, closing the white-blue collar divide.   [39:55] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: Working from anywhere is the way to attract and retain talent nationally or globally. It's a talent strategy, not a work arrangement.     RESOURCES   Prithwiray Choudhury on LinkedIn   Choudhury's new book “The World is Your Office: How Working from Anywhere Boosts Talent, Productivity, and Innovation”   Research by Prithwiraj Choudhury   Phone-er Tare Pakhi song by Prithwiray Choudhury   Ekader Sohor song by Prithwiraj Choudhury     QUOTES   “Instead of moving the person, move the work. Let the person live where he, she or they want to live and just move the work to where the person is. So that's what I call ‘Work from Anywhere'”.     “Performance should only be measured based on the quality of work and nothing else. So how many days people work, how many hours they work, how many meetings they attend, how many times does the manager see their face? All of that is irrelevant.”     “The manager should really matter in setting the high level policy, setting the goals of the quarter of the month. And then really inspiring people to bring the best out and mentoring and coaching them, and acting as a problem solver.”     “Hybrid is a mix of work from anywhere days and in-person days. Work from anywhere and in-person being equally important…There are two decisions to make. The first decision is how frequently should they meet? Should they meet every week or once a month or once a quarter? And the other decision they need to make is the venue of meeting.”     “I honestly feel that instead of telling the whole company that they need to do the same form of hybrid, every team should be left to its own devices to choose what works best for them.”   “Working from anywhere is the way to attract and retain talent nationally or globally. It's a talent strategy, not a work arrangement.”   "With AI and automation and digital twins, now it's possible to work from anywhere in a blue collar setting for factory workers, for folks working in a hospital or a warehouse and in a power plant or an energy rig. And so now this white collar/blue collar divide about work flexibility is going to get mitigated."

Most career transitions are treated like cliff jumps.You quit the job. Burn the bridges. Bet everything on your dream.Shiv Choudhury chose a different path.When he left BCG to build a billion-dollar business, he didn't go all in.First, he faked an app. It didn't even work.But it taught him one thing: customers wanted what he was offering.That was enough to move to the next stage.He calls it “pre-to-typing.”

Many organizational leaders believe remote work is here to stay. Others are requiring employees return to the workplace. But Prithriwaj “Raj” Choudhury, an associate professor at Harvard Business School, says it's not a simple managerial choice between two options. He explains three main variations of hybrid work: quarterly, monthly, and weekly. And he shares three key challenges to remote work: isolation, communication, and socialization. And he breaks down the specific management practices necessary to make those hybrid arrangements succeed most effectively, adding that AI is making some of those practices easier and cheaper than ever. Choudhury's new book is The World Is Your Office: How Work from Anywhere Boosts Talent, Productivity, and Innovation.

"There is no such thing as a sea turtle expert!" Dr. Kartik chuckles, recalling veteran biologist Dr. Jack Frazier's words. "Sea turtles will always find a way to do something that baffles you." Although lighthearted, Dr Kartik's remark speaks to his instinctive curiosity and ever-evolving understanding of sea turtles. A leading scientist and sea turtle conservationist from India, Dr Kartik Shanker is a strong advocate for decolonising sea turtle conservation and embracing more pluralistic ways of engaging with nature - a notion that he weaves throughout this candid conversation.Part one of this bonus episode begins with Dr Kartik exploring the enduring mysteries of arribada (mass nesting events that continue to baffle researchers). But the discussion soon takes a deeper turn, examining how conservation practice often prioritises visible, emotionally charged threats while overlooking the more complex, intangible challenges facing sea turtles.The conversation on conservation conundrums continues in part two of the episode, where Dr. Kartik confronts one of the most side-stepped topics in sea turtle conservation: the consumptive use of sea turtles. He critiques the dominant philosophy of protectionism, questioning its unintended consequences and urging the conservation community to reconsider its approach.This episode goes beyond sea turtles, it tackles the larger idea of how we perceive our relationship with nature and the very practice of conservation itself. So tune in now for a conversation that challenges the status quo and raises some tough questions.Further Reading, Sources & References:Shanker, K., Pandav, B., & Choudhury, B. C. (2004).

Sumit Paul-Choudhury shares that in his childhood he somewhat lost faith in mankind after starkly coming to the realization that not everyone is kind, good, and caring. Sumit went on to pursue science, technology, and the future. He became Editor-in-Chief of New Scientist, trained as an astrophysicist, and received a Sloan Fellowship in strategy and leadership from the London Business School. Then his wife died and on that day, he became an optimist. It was a life reset for him and optimism became his area of focus and research. Sumit has now written a book, The Bright Side: How Optimists Change the World, and How You Can Be One. I was raised in an optimistic home and while I side with optimism, I'm also sensitive to the concept of toxic positivity. So I sat down to hear Sumit's story and learn more about his research. He cites that in today's culture, it can feel "darkly glamorous to think it's the end of the world. There is kind of a seduction to it." And yet his research shows that optimism simply breeds more opportunity for us. So he's using his research to help us understand what healthy optimism is and how to harness it consciously and healthfully.

Optimism, irrational though it might be, is central to the human psyche: it gives us an advantage both in everyday life and in the evolutionary race. Sumit Paul-Choudhury joins us to share his theory of rational optimism: possibilism. Without this optimism we would never have survived the unpredictable – and often hostile – world we evolved into. Yet optimism is not reserved for times of extremity. Its benefits manifest throughout our everyday lives: our relationships, careers, bodies and minds. And it will play a critical role in overcoming the challenges of the 21st century. This is a powerful manifesto for hope and a much-needed new perspective on our prospects. He shows how embracing action, imagination and possibility, we can find a path to the bright side, even – perhaps especially – when the future seems dark. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. Najifa Choudhury is an ambulatory care pharmacist and founder of a CBD company, Dr. Peace Lily. Through her formal education and training, she specialized in geriatric care with a focus on holistic healing. As a pharmacist, she values and trusts prescription medications but noticed most patients are fast to take a pill to fix their problems rather than figure out the root cause and try non-pharmacological options first. As a health care professional, she believes everyone should have a holistic approach to healing and not just medicating. Three years ago, when she was suffering from stress & anxiety, she looked for natural ways to help calm her racing thoughts and during that journey of healing, she discovered the plant medicine that is CBD and all its health benefits! CBD has helped Dr. Choudhury take back control of her life and changed the initial negative stigma she had about CBD. After using CBD herself and researching the cannabis industry extensively, she found two major issues: firstly, the immense knowledge gap amongst healthcare professionals when it came to CBD, and secondly, how unregulated the industry is. She decided to solve both of these issues and overcome this general incompetency around CBD, and as a result, launched her own company in 2019, Dr. Peace Lily - and has been impacting lives ever since. She has been able to grow her company by 400% in the last year and launch her products into retail in Metro Detroit. In the summer of 2021, She decided to focus on Dr. Peace Lily full-time and quit her ambulatory care pharmacist job. The transition felt seamless when she realized she was making such a positive impact on the Detroit community with her business. Her main goal is to empower more patients through education and to bridge the gap between prescription medications and CBD. With how much the brand has grown so far and the influence it has been making in the lives of the community and others, she has considered raising capital to scale her business as the goal is to be a leading CBD company founded by a healthcare professional. So far her work has been featured in numerous media outlets such as Cosmopolitan Magazine, WXYZ Channel 7, SEEN, HOUR Detroit, Top Doc, Authority, and others. Her love of wanting to educate and empower patients as a CBD health consultant to be their best advocate has been extremely evident, and she is often asked to speak at conferences and give keynote speeches about pharmacology, CBD, and cannabis-related topics. www.payalghayal.com

In the early 2000s, Bikram Yoga spread across North America like wildfire. It was a multi-billion dollar business, spurred on by its eccentric founder, Bikram Choudhury. Choudhury was as close to yoga royalty as you could get and was unafraid to hide it. But according to some of his own students, his empire was built upon blood, sweat and tears – as well as a few critical lies.Reporter Julia Lowrie Henderson practiced Bikram Yoga for nearly a decade and joins Crime Story to discuss the scandal that rocked her yoga community.Note: This episode contains difficult subject matter, including references to sexual assault.  Crime Story is taking a quick summer break. We're back in September with all new episodes.

Explosive Revelations by Bangladesh Journalist | Dark Secrets of the Gandhis | Shoaib Choudhury

“It was nothing to worry about,” Andrew was repeatedly told, when he visitedurgent care twice for pain in his pelvis area. But the discomfort wouldn't go away, so he met with his primary care physician who referred him to a urologist for an ultrasound. The scans led to a testicular cancer diagnosis in early 2023. It was caught early enough, and he was told there was a good prognosis. The cancer had only spread very lightly to his lymph nodes. Adam works as the director of data analytics for a pharmaceutical company. Heloves vacationing with his family, watching his children play their sports (soccer for his son Jacob and gymnastics for his daughter Julia) and caring for his 2004 BMW. He hopes to help normalize conversations around testicular cancer for other men so they can overcome stigmas and shame around it. Today, he and his wife Kara arecelebrating their wedding anniversary. Dr. Atish Choudhury is a medical oncologist and clinical/translational investigatorwithin the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and currently serves as Chair of the Gelb Center for Translational Research. He also serves as an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. His research interests include investigation of genetic and epigenetic biomarkers from circulating free DNA from patients with metastatic cancer, biomarker studies from other banked human specimens from patients participating in clinical trials, and clinical investigation in novel therapeutics for genitourinary malignancies. According to the American Cancer Society, testicular cancer is not common. About 1 of every 250 males will develop testicular cancer at some point during their lifetime. The American Cancer Society's estimate for testicular cancer in the United States for 2024 is about 9,760 new cases of testicular cancer diagnosed. The average age of males when first diagnosed with testicular cancer is about 33. This is largely a disease of young and middle-aged men, but about 6% of cases occur in children and teens, and about 8% occur in men older than 55.

Humans have long sought the fountain of youth, and recently scientists have explored the biological basis of aging and potential strategies to reverse the process. Along with groundbreaking discoveries that have enabled extending the lifespan of model organisms, the anti-aging movement has spurred an entire industry focused on stopping the biological clock. In today's episode of Beyond the Abstract, Derek and Dan discuss recent studies about the aging process and debate the promises and pitfalls of this fast-moving field.This episode is sponsored by Proteintech Group, a company that creates reagents for the biomedical sciences so scientists can conduct groundbreaking science.

We meditate regularly. Eastern civilization is very spiritually advanced compared to Western civilization, and this is well documented. The whole yoga revolution, for instance, began when a bunch of East Indian practitioners brought their knowledge here. I strongly suggest that people not only take time out of their day but also make an effort to spend time with their breath, meditate, drown out the noise, and learn to be comfortable with their self-talk. Self-talk is a crucial aspect of this practice. There's your foreground and background conversation, and the conversation you're having with yourself is essentially the conversation you're having with the universe. Thoughts On Breathing Buteyko is a Russian scientist who developed a breathing method. You can find more about it online; it's been really helpful for me. Additionally, there are various frequency breath training techniques involving specific durations for holding, inhaling, and exhaling. Bullying Story Growing up, my father passed away, leaving my mom to run our restaurant on Bloor and Lansdowne. She was a great cook, but not a businessperson. I spent my early years in Regent Park until age 10, then moved to Jane and Finch. My mom hoped for less racism, but we faced new challenges. In Regent Park, I dealt with rockers and skinheads, and in Jane and Finch, it was a mix of Mexicans, Jamaicans, and other ethnicities. I encountered racism, being called names like “Paki” and “curry eater.” I didn't engage aggressively; instead, I'd ask, “Why are you doing this?” However, in Jane and Finch, I sometimes had to fight back for my belongings. I believe facing adversity is essential for growth. My kids, aged 15, 17, and 19, have never been in a fight, which I find hard to relate to. When I was younger, making plans involved uncertainty, unlike today's instant communication. My son shows me how his classmates share their locations with him, thinking it's an achievement. While each generation faces different challenges, I believe that experiencing breakdowns can lead to breakthroughs. Building mental toughness is crucial, and while inclusivity is important, it should not compromise genuine personal growth.

What's in a calorie? So much more than what you see on a box of cereal or a restaurant menu. The story of the nutritional calorie is the story of U.S. empire, dating back to the late 1800s when government agencies used it to determine just how little they could feed people in the military, prisons, asylums, and Native boarding schools. This week, Dr. Athia N. Choudhury joins Jonathan to discuss the history and politics of the calorie, and explains why counting on this metric—and wellness culture more generally—can be a “mundane kind of violence.” A note from Dr. Choudhury and Team JVN: This discussion periodically includes the term “ob*sity.” When it is referenced, it is only to describe a process of medicalization and pathologization, and not in alignment with its politics or political uses. Athia N. Choudhury is a writer and cultural historian/theorist interested in questions of race, food, militarism, eugenics, and body surveillance in the 20th-21st century. She earned a Ph.D. in American Studies and Ethnicity from the University of Southern California and is currently the Postdoctoral Associate in Asian American and Diaspora Studies at Duke University. You can find Athia's writing in The Journal of Transnational American Studies, The Routledge International Handbook on Fat Studies, Pipewrench magazine, and Food, Fat, Fitness: Critical Perspectives. You can learn more about Dr. Choudhury at athiachoudhury.com, and reach out to her here. Follow us on Instagram @CuriousWithJVN to join the conversation. Jonathan is on Instagram @JVN.
