Collaboration Software: Enables employees to work productively remotely or in the office
http://www.ibm.com/software/lotus/?cm_mmc=agus_iteplotv-20090615-usitp300-_-n-_-v2-_-y Jim Vaselopulos of PSC Group discusses how working remotely shouldn’t mean being less productive. Businesses can (and should) still be efficient, regardless of where employees are working. Collaboration software enables companies such as PSC Group to maximize productivity whether they’re in the office or working remotely.
PSC Group, LLC:
“Travel times and commutes have gotten so ridiculous, especially in larger cities, that you can get to work faster, you can get to productivity faster in the day, and its not that youre working less, in fact I find that people who are working remotely are working more, but you end up being far more productive because you dont have that burden of the commute. And also the emotional burden that comes with a two-hour commute. It weighs on you heavy. As soon as you step in to the office where you’re supposed to be productive and in a good mood.
Its funny, we used to measure our efficiency by how empty the office was. If the office was full, were not doing well. And if the office is empty, were doing great. Whats funny is, that over the years, we’ve got a full office. And much of that is that because people are working remotely. We can take control of desktop remotely. Everything we can do now with technology has enabled the work from home, work from the office and allow for a better quality of work from many of our consultants. And even a better quality of life for everyone involved, including the clients, who in many cases prefer to work from home.”
