Ellison, Nicole B.

Telework and social change: how technology is reshaping the boundaries between home and work Ellison, Nicole B. - Westport, CT Greenwood Publishing Group 2004 - 169 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [153]-165) and index.

As technology comes to permeate every aspect of work, it liberates organizations and their employees from the physical boundaries of the workplace, and yet amplifies many of the interpersonal and cultural challenges inherent to corporate life. Drawing from an in-depth study of two dynamic organizations, along with extensive research on technology and organizational behavior, Nicole Ellison explores the subtle and powerful ways that distance working influences management effectiveness, worker productivity, and such intangible elements as social cohesion and trust.
