Practical insight on remote and flexible work

I’m Andy Stofferis, and I work with leaders, organizations, and places navigating the realities of remote and flexible work.

For more than 12 years, I’ve been involved in international marketing, project development, and ecosystem building — collaborating with companies, public institutions, and distributed teams across Europe and beyond. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and lived experience.

What interests me is not whether remote work is possible — that debate is over — but how it actually functions once incentives, policies, people, and places collide.

A perspective shaped by the field, not theory

Most conversations about remote work stay at a high level: culture, tools, productivity, or trends.

My perspective comes from something different.

Alongside advisory and content work, I lead Hubs Travel, a workation and remote work initiative that partners with destinations to host international professionals for mid- to long-term stays. These are real, operational programs — involving housing, community dynamics, expectations, performance, governance, and local impact.

Working at this level means seeing things most leaders never see clearly:

• Why some “remote-friendly” policies quietly fail

• Where autonomy breaks down in practice

• How informal power structures emerge in hybrid setups

• What remote professionals actually respond to — not what surveys claim

This ground-level exposure informs everything I write and advise on.

The newsletter: a briefing for decision makers

I publish a paid newsletter for company leaders and decision makers navigating remote, hybrid, and flexible work.

This newsletter is not about:

• News aggregation

• Productivity hacks

• Tool recommendations

• Remote-work optimism

It is designed as a weekly intelligence briefing, focused on judgment, not noise.

Each issue explores:

• What works — and why

• What consistently fails — and why

• Where leadership assumptions break down

• How decisions play out over time in distributed environments

The goal is simple:

Help leaders make clearer, more grounded decisions — and avoid expensive mistakes.

The newsletter draws on:

• Ongoing operational projects across Europe and North America

• Direct exposure to remote professionals and teams

• Conversations with founders, operators, public partners, and managers

• Patterns observed across multiple contexts, not isolated case studies

It is written for people who are responsible for outcomes, not opinions.

Advisory work & partnerships

In parallel, I work with:

• Companies operating remote or hybrid teams

• Destinations and public institutions exploring remote-work programs

• Organizations building products or services in the future-of-work space

Typical areas of support include:

• Remote and hybrid work strategy

• Program and initiative design

• Positioning and go-to-market strategy

• Content, storytelling, and international outreach

My role is often to bridge strategy and execution — helping partners move from abstract ideas to concrete, well-run initiatives.

Experience & references

Over the years, I’ve collaborated on international projects involving organizations such as SafetyWing, e-Residency Estonia, Totaljobs, the European Commission, Accor Hotels, and Cohabs, among others.

Beyond formal partnerships, much of my experience comes from working directly with:

• Remote professionals and digital nomads

• Accommodation providers and coworking operators

• Local stakeholders in both rural and urban destinations

This mix of institutional, commercial, and on-the-ground experience shapes a perspective that is both strategic and practical.

How I work

I value:

• Clarity over consensus

• Long-term thinking over quick wins

• Operational reality over fashionable narratives

Whether through writing, advisory work, or project leadership, my focus is always on credibility, consistency, and real-world impact.
