Title: SLA CLICK U LIVE SEMINAR: "Organization 2.0", Part 2: Working Virtually:
Telecommuting or the Doing the Digital Dance
Presenter: Rebecca Jones, Partner, Dysart & Jones Associates
Description: Not having to drive to work, "working virtually," or managing a digital
branch-it all sounds terrific, but the day-to-day reality can be rocky.
Most of our attention has been on the cool technologies, getting them
into place and training staff and clients to use them. But it's the
nature of the work environment, communication strategies and work
processes that determine the success of the technologies in truly
delivering the results everyone is hoping for. The stresses of "out of
sight is out of mind" are real for many people, and there's nothing like
communication confusion to lead to conflict. This session focuses on
practical steps for organizations to take to ensure that those
individuals or teams working digitally have not only the technology but
also the supports and work practices in place to be productive and happy
(yes, happy!).
