Comments on: Teleworking as the Norm: Is It Possible? http://www.theappgap.com/teleworking-as-the-norm-is-it-possible.html Apps, Strategies, and Best Practices for Web-based work Wed, 25 Jan 2012 16:56:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Anita Campbell http://www.theappgap.com/teleworking-as-the-norm-is-it-possible.html/comment-page-1#comment-4938 Anita Campbell Fri, 25 Jul 2008 22:43:55 +0000 http://www.theappgap.com/teleworking-as-the-norm-is-it-possible.html#comment-4938 Hi Celine, very interesting observations. Here's another data point, when it comes to the world of small businesses: somewhere between 8 and 12 million microbusiness owners already telecommute, i.e., they run their businesses from their homes. And the trend is toward even "larger" small businesses, i.e., those with employee, to be run out of home. Another trend among small businesses is to operate virtually, with team-members working from their own homes, without a centralized workplace. It's partly economics and partly lifestyle considerations that are driving small businesses to this kind of operating structure. It puts lots of pressures on owners and managers to deal with personal distractions and to try to get a team to gel and be productive.when everyone is spread out all over.
