The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the coronavirus outbreak a global pandemic.

Given that action, you may be required to work at home given the continued spread of the coronavirus-19.  There is little doubt that is putting remote work to the biggest stress-test ever.

Clearly, it is taking place at unprecedented scale.  It has been in the news night after night and not likely to change anytime soon.

Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft have all been taking part, and the list continues to grow.

Based on the latest briefings and news reports, this trend will progress for weeks, if not months.

A few surveys of employees that work at home feel they are just as productive as they were when they went into the office.  Some actually feel they should work more given they do not have commute time and expense.

Learn to:

  1. Properly establish your remote work area
  2. Form ground rules of remote communications
  3. Get off on the right foot when working from home
  4. Short cut possible mistakes by learning from the presenter’s 5 years of practical experience
