Telecommute Ideas

Telecommute! From Booklist

Telecommute!: Go To Work Without Leaving. “One of the major trends in corporate America today is telecommuting. Shaw describes telecommuting as an off-site work arrangement that permits employees to work in or near their homes for all or part of the work week. The book’s main focus is the employee–who is best suited for telecommuting and why, likely problems, benefits to the employee, jobs that best fit into a telecommuting situation, and equipment requirements. The author gives telecommuters many tips on how to succeed, but in the end, as she insists, the effort wins or fails based on the performance of the individual telecommuter, the understanding and cooperation of coworkers, and, most of all, the attitude of the supervisor. The attitude of the supervisor and the culture of the company play significant roles in successful telecommuting. However, with developments such as traffic congestion and the resulting stress, Generation X employees (those in their twenties and early thirties) demanding more personal time, and affordable technology that can link the office to an employee at any location, telecommute ideas whose time has come”.
