This list has discussed telecommuting many times from
an employee's perspective. I'd like to gain your
wisdom from a manager's perspective.
One of the problems for a telecommuting employee is
getting that visibility that the onsite people get
naturally. I'm managing an employee that telecommutes
full time and I'm wondering what strategies that I, as
a manager, can use to overcome that problem and best
get a feel for what's going on beyond the status
reports.
Any experience or ideas you all have would be most
appreciated.
Thanks so much.
Chris
