It is a big leap for a company...
Does anyone know where I could find resources (case studies, testimonials, etc) to promote remote work? 'Hard' data would certainly help convince the boss. Stories like this are great, but they'll need more concrete evidence to back it up.
- allwein 15y agoIt's not directly on remote work, but I just finished reading "Why Work Sucks and How To Fix It", written by two of the people that helped institute Best Buy's Results Only Work Environment (ROWE). It's a great summary of ROWE, a lot of the troubles they had with corporate culture and perception, as well as ways to make an argument for ROWE in your own workplace.

- robertpateii 15y agolately there's been a big push in the US government for an increase in teleworking. if you need specific examples, a 2010 telework report is available on this page: http://www.telework.gov/ http://www.telework.gov/.

There's also a white paper linked on this page http://www.lifesize.com/Industry_Solutions/Government_Solutions/Telework_Solutions.aspx http://www.lifesize.com/Industry_Solutions/Government_Soluti...
