Remote Work The New Normal

By Gren Gale

A comprehensive guide to remote working for employees and employers. While for years now it's been no secret that many office based jobs could be carried out remotely, the COVID-19 crisis turned that potential into reality for many businesses worldwide. However in most cases existing ways of working were left unaltered other than the introduction of videoconferencing. Fighting a new war with the approach used to win the last one is a continuing theme. Companies need to reorganise, devise new approaches and adopt more and better collaboration technology to ensure remote working really works. We help you decide if remote working is right for you, where to find remote jobs and how to pass a remote interview. There's advice on how to build successful remote teams, organise meet-ups and hackathons, hold remote social events and adapt to communicating remotely. We look at how to make teams with a mix of cultures and languages work, together with the challenges of different working patterns and time zones. We help you choose the right technology to support remote work from the huge number of suppliers and packages available. The main technology vendors are described, together with what tools and features you should look for. Security is a major concern for any remote set up and is covered in detail. Legal issues are addressed including health and safety, confidentiality and cyber-bullying.
