Book Description
Much of the research in the area of telework has been more enthusiastic and optimistic than dependable. This book presents objective descriptions and experiences of telework, instead of focusing on boosterism of proponents' theories or the unexamined skepticism of naysayers. Vega specifically questions the wholesale adoption of telework as recommended by its advocates. She examines the impact of telework on the worker, as well as benefits to the employer. Telework might not be the answer to all problems, but Vega's close examination concludes with an upbeat description of what can happen--and has happened--in the best of circumstances.
Book Description
More than 30 million American workers work beyond the four walls of the traditional office. They're teleworkers, and they're changing the nature of work - for themselves, their co-workers, their managers and their families. Using the best practices, and the insights of others, Teleworking/Telecommuting reveals how to create effective, alternative office programs that deliver efficient, productive, and satisfied workers. Teleworking/Telecommuting represents the latest thinking in remote and virtual office strategies.

All the stuff you don't know you need to know.......2003-04-04
To put it succinctly "Teleworking and Telecommuting" is a must-have guide to anyone considering either of these working paradigms. The author provides and extensive analysis of all the benefits and pitfalls of working from home. He covers the personal characteristics necessary for successfully working from home, home office furnishings, balancing problems with family life and work life when at home, strategies for getting the employer to accept the proposition of working from home, and many other things that are critical to your success but often overlooked when considering working from home. The book ends with four appendices that provide a teleworker aptitude test and three sample contracts. I've been involved in teleworking for some time where I spend some time at the office and some time elsewhere providing work product. This is the most comprehensive book on the subject that I have read and so is a highly recommended read for anyone who is thinking of changing their work style to a teleworking paradigm or who is thinking of taking a job where teleworking is required or an option.
Book Description
Telecommuting can have a tremendously positive impact on an individual's quality of life, productivity, and peace of mind. But all of the advantages are contingent on being a well-informed telecommuter. Author Debra Dinnocenzo offers specific strategies for successful telecommuting that will enhance effectiveness and prosperity, both personal and professional. Easy-to-implement suggestions offer ways to transfer the knowledge and take the steps necessary to change and improve relationships, processes, resources, and systems, at work and at home. Sections address working well alone, with the family, with a team, and with external partners.
Customer Reviews:
Insightful!.......2001-02-17
Debra A. Dinnocenzo has written a friendly, informal, and sometimes humorous book for people who are or want to be telecommuters. Using her firsthand experiences, the author covers all the issues telecommuters face, from finding the right technology to coping with myths people hold about working from home. This book provides information and tips you can really use. If you are a telecommuter, telemanager, or home-based worker, this book will help you increase your skills and productivity. If you are considering becoming a telecommuter, it will tell you exactly what to expect and how you can make the transition to this new way of working. ...
101 Tips for Telecommuters: Real Life.......1999-12-21
101 Tips is a must-have desk reference for professionals who are contemplating or just entering the telecommuting world. It is exceptionally well-organized with cross-references, appendices, checklists, and a writing style that makes it very easy to find what you need and want. The author effectively delivers not only the mechanics for efficient telecommuting but also, and perhaps more importantly, addresses the relationship dimensions within the family unit and co-workers. The book is loaded with inserts (or "Tip2"s). The telecommuter who diligently implements all or most of these Tip2s will find new levels of personal efficiency and insights into relationships that can relieve many anxious moments.The resource guide in the appendix was an unexpected bonus. This book is also a great resource for the eager, new member of the workforce who wants to do well and have a balanced life.
Director, Executive Development-Hillenbrand Industries.......1999-12-18
This book is a real gem!, and one with many hidden facets. I learned many new tips and techniques about telecommuting and how to think about it, even though it is something that I've done off and on over the last 6 years. The book really shines in the area of lifestyle management---it really has a lot of worthwhile things to say about creating a life that will work for you. A life that integrates work into the bigger picture with all of the different priorities/challenges that stare all of us in the face every day. This book really tells you both how to work, and how to make your work work for you! The format is very accessible(I read some of the tips while waiting for meetings) and bitesized. The tip2 feature is a really cool way to apply the ideas and learnings. I'm recommending the book to all my friends who are telecommuting--or considering it. Fun, practical and impactful---you'll like it!
101 Tips for Telecommuters.......1999-12-01
This is a great read in addition to being content rich, sometimes witty and very wise. I'm on the "management side" of the telecommuting challenge and found the advice to be practical and sound. I'm buying copies for all of my people working from home--a small investment with an expected big reward.
Don't miss this one!.......1999-12-01
Debra's book is practical in its approach and timely in its message. If you work at home you'll not want to miss this one! Elaine Biech author of The Business of Consulting.

ASIN: 1878289799 |
Book Description
Telecommuting by any name: telework, mobile work, home offices, virtual employees, or telematics, is one of the most intriguing and least understood results of advances in portable computing. Employees and communities are eager to embrace it, and the media reports about it as a perk with the power to attract new talent, as well as to retain good employees. The question is how to start a program and what should an organization worry about? The difficulty for many managers is getting good advice on starting and managing programs effectively. Telecommuting and Virtual Offices: Issues and Opportunities presents usable research and advice on many of these issues. This book is for academics or practitioners seeking a better understanding of designing and managing telework programs.

Book Description
Thanks to telecommunications breakthroughs, almost half of all jobs in North America and Europe could today be performed away from a traditional office. Millions of office workers are already working from home, and while some appreciate the flexibility of home-based telework, others find that they are bound to their employers by an "electronic leash." This book explores the "co-workplace" - a new type of neighbourhood-based facility offering the benefits of remote work while maintaining boundaries between workplace and home.
Borrowing from the experience of cooperative artists' studios, business incubators, and the corner copy shop, the new co-workplace would be planned by the people who would really use it. It would be close to home with access to such amenities as meeting rooms, childcare, food services, and recreation facilities. It would combine the infrastructure of a good corporate office with the healthy convenience of walking to work. In The Co-workplace, Johnson draws lessons from spaces used collaboratively by software developers, artists, lawyers, and other professionals.
This book explains why office infrastructure can be important for productivity as well as the quality of work life. While the work process benefits from peace, quiet, and protection from interruption, creativity and innovation thrive amid opportunities for social interaction and synergy. The Co-workplace tackles one of the central policy and planning issues of our time and, as such, will be vital reading for those in urban planning, communications, work & leisure studies, and women's studies.

Customer Reviews:
A book that explains a complicated subject with ease........1998-04-07
Teleworking Explained should be renamed, "Teleworking Explained Easily" It is one of the the most practical books available on the subject. Its chapters are concise and to the point. There are diagrams, photos and models to help the beginner (or advanced) reader to understand what is going on in the complicated world of teleworking. This book should be in paperback so that those on the lower end of the income scale can afford it.
