We opened in my rented house in 2009. Right in the middle of a recession. A single mom with two kids and her new boyfriend who was now her partner, no reel, no money and no bio, we had to jump in very creatively to get things going. In a way, I am really glad we did it then. We had to be so creative, but we also were lucky because the only overhead we had was taking care of ourselves and our family. I never, ever accepted no for an answer. Ever.
We're working from home thanks to the coronavirus pandemic … let's start a radio station! Staffers at creative agency AKQA in Melbourne did just that, launching WFH-FM (the WFH is short for "work from home," of course) on March 16. So far, offices in Melbourne, Sydney, London and San Francisco have contributed. Nearly 300 team members tune in each day on the web or via mobile browsers from Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the U.S., UAE and Oman.
We are less than three months into 2020, and the bright and shiny glow of the new year has been swept away, replaced by a tidal wave of fear, existential dread and panic caused by COVID-19. As individuals and families across the globe worry about the health and well-being of themselves and their loved ones, businesses are grappling with new realities: a remote workforce, future projects coming into question, canceled events, layoffs and subzero team morale.
