"(Tom Howlett, 2014)
We have a long history of working together in offices and a very short one of doing it remotely. The tools are just about there, with plenty of new ones emerging as WebRTC starts to become a reality, but it will take us some time to adapt our way of working and learn how to use them as effectively as we do in the office.
Can remote working change our organisations? I certainly feel less of the negative effects of silos and hierarchy without the physical structures we build in offices to separate and elevate us. This leads to a feeling of greater autonomy and freedom to collaborate and connect more widely within the organisation.
So if we can be as effective working remotely, can it give our organisation a competitive edge? It will come as no surprise that I believe it can.
