✦ Synopsis

Advancements in technology now enable remote workers to work from practically anywhere in the world. Learning how to work properly with these technologies can give remote workers advantages over those working on site but it is important for remote workers to properly manage and use these technologies. Management also plays an important role in the success of any remote work program, as it must establish the ground rules for remote workers and create guidelines to enable the success of a remote work environment. This book provides remote work managers and remote workers with comprehensive guidance to make informed choices about the way they work, where they work and what equipment is best suited to fulfill their job functions. This information will help organizations maintain and often improve productivity.
