Working from home

For the past week, I have been working from home. It is great.

I am able to keep in contact with external people by e-mail and telephone. If I have to discuss business, I send some brief details in an e-mail, and fix a time for a telephone discussion. (This is similar to arranging a physical meeting).

It is quite easy to discuss matters over the telephone. It is much more productive than a physical meeting.

I have some people working part time for me from their homes. I also keep in touch with them in the same way.

I try to keep the paper work to a minimum. Even paper work can be scanned and sent through an e-mail or fax.

I shall share more about my experience in this new working style.
