Is the virtual world disappearing?
Has anyone else noticed that the ever so popular ‘virtual’ word seems to be disappearing? At one stage if you typed a word into to Google somehow adverts offering you the opportunity to work from home using a unique virtual office package would pop up, without it having any relevance to your search term. Google was saturated by them.
But now it seems this ‘work from home’ trend is starting to disappear with employers preferring to be in the heart of action. This of course, in our opinion, contributes to better productivity but also increased job satisfaction.

Tom Davenport wrote an interesting article on the Harvard Business Website, which stated ‘Many companies allow some work at home, but far fewer seem to support it for five days a week’. Maybe this depends on the company set up and specific roles within them. However, there does seem to be a change in attitude towards virtual worlds but maybe this constant shift in working patterns is what keeps companies looking forward.
Our Big Idea – keep the constant shifts going and give employees the option. Allow them to take control of their work ethic, and if results don’t reflect this quite simply bring them back to the office.
