John Lee is the Co-founder and CEO of Work From Anywhere, a platform that helps companies execute a compliant global hiring strategy. He also founded CultureMee, an intercultural communications platform that won "Best Travel Technology Product" at the Global Youth Travel Awards in 2018. Before Work From Anywhere and CultureMee, John held senior finance roles and traveled to over 150 locations in a 10-year period, where he witnessed the challenges of managing complex corporate and individual taxes and employment law across multiple jurisdictions. In this episode… Remote work is becoming mainstream, initiating a demand for digital nomad work styles, where employees work remotely from various global locations. But these policies have legal implications that can be costly for uninformed companies. So how can you navigate tax and immigration laws to develop work-from-anywhere policies that boost talent acquisition and retention? Many businesses believe that countries waive tax requirements after 183 days of residence. But according to digital nomad John Lee, this is a myth, and violating an employment visa can subject your company to fines, preventing you from hiring globally. Developing a global work program requires evaluating each country's laws to remain compliant. Some countries, including Portugal and Barbados, offer two types of digital nomad visas: work from anywhere, allowing employees to work temporarily in another country, and hire from anywhere, permitting businesses to hire within a given country. By comprehensively assessing work abroad prerequisites, you can decrease employee attrition. Tune in to this episode of What The Teck? as Rolando Rosas and Dave Kelly host Co-founder and CEO of Work From Anywhere, John Lee, to discuss working abroad. John shares the leading countries for remote work, the risks companies face when adopting work abroad policies, and advice for adapting to a digital nomad lifestyle.
