Remote, the leader in building, managing and supporting global, distributed workforces has today released its annual report highlighting the most influential people in the world of remote and hybrid work.

The 2022 Remote Influencer Report, which was created as a resource for companies developing their remote and hybrid working practices, as well as for employees who want to pursue a remote career, names 150 of the most impactful global thinkers and leaders in the future of work.

This year’s report reveals a 237% rise in the number of HR positions specifically responsible for remote or distributed teams, with 27 of the 150 influencers (18%) holding positions such as Head of Remote, Head of Dynamic Work or similar, compared with just 4 individuals in 2021.

Remote’s VP of People, Nadia Vatalidis, commented, “This year’s Remote Influencer Report shows how the impact of remote and flexible working has dramatically changed over the last year. Despite this, some companies and individuals are still navigating the transition. Remote’s mission is to democratise the world of work, so we have created this report for the second year running to gather in one place the most inspirational and powerful leaders in this space.”

The 2022 Remote Influencer Report divides influence into three categories to capture the different trends in the evolution of remote work:

  • Innovators – those who advocate for the concept and opportunities of remote work.
