Trust plays a crucial role in telework adaptation. Trust-based management practices largely explain Canada's stronger telework implementation success.

The study reveals important differences in managerial control—French organizations exercise higher supervisory control than Swiss and Canadian ones, with Canada showing the lowest control levels.

Canada shows the strongest adaptation to telework, indicating that national context significantly influences remote work outcomes beyond organizational factors alone.

Using survey data from 359 executives in France, Switzerland, and Canada, the research finds that while all three countries have favorable cultural conditions for telework, significant differences exist between them.

"Deciding to Adopt Telework: The Role of Experience, Trust, and Control Across Three Countries” examines how cultural factors and prior telework experience affect executives' decisions to implement remote work policies in three countries.

The findings show that working conditions matter, though experiences can vary across workers. While some might adapt easily, for many spatial layout, noise, and distractions can hinder workers’ productivity.

This findings show workplace collaboration is not spontaneous, but depends heavily on facilitators to actively encourage the exchange of knowledge and promote interaction amongst coworkers.

Challenging claims raised by open innovation theory and open space designs commonly found in coworking environments, the article asks: Do co-working spaces really foster creativity and innovation?

Using qualitative methods—semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis—this study examines the benefits and limitations of working conditions in coworking spaces.

This article focuses on non-metropolitan areas where empirical studies on coworking are limited, addressing a noted research gap.
