If you or your company has decided to implement a work from home environment. This book will help you understand some of the pitfalls and how to overcome them. Although the modules in this book can be viewed independently of each other. They will each build upon the previous one. I'll tell a pretty common story about the journey of discovery a Company must undertake as they implement a work from home culture. I'll give you a teaser right up-front, Management Matters. We will start by exploring a few key questions.

• Does your company have policies in place to allow working from home? Without adequate policies. Remote workers will be left to their imagination to define the successful parameters for working from home, clearly defined policies and guidelines are the foundation upon which a successful work from home culture is built.
• Does your Company have the adequate technical infrastructure to support remote workers? Policies are one thing, the infrastructure to support them is another. Your Company must have the proper equipment to allow remote access when appropriate and fire laws to protect from improper access.
• Do the managers in your Company and this includes you, interact positively with remote workers? Even with policies and infrastructure, poor management can cause work from home culture to die before it ever has a chance. The success of the work from home culture rests firmly in the hands of management.
• Are remote employees productive? It's important to have appropriate expectations, accountability and measurements in place to ensure remote workers are productive. It's also appropriate for the Company to establish guidelines for the work from home environment.
• Are remote employees' interactive members of the team? Finally, no matter how much effort is placed on making the remote workers productive, it's a moot point if the local workers won't integrate them into the project teams. A mixture of the initiative, management, cooperation and technology is required to successfully integrate remote workers into a team.
