101 Tips for Telecommuters: Real Life December 21, 1999

101 Tips is a must-have desk reference for professionals who are contemplating or just entering the telecommuting world. It is exceptionally well-organized with cross-references, appendices, checklists, and a writing style that makes it very easy to find what you need and want. The author effectively delivers not only the mechanics for efficient telecommuting but also, and perhaps more importantly, addresses the relationship dimensions within the family unit and co-workers. The book is loaded with inserts (or "Tip2"s). The telecommuter who diligently implements all or most of these Tip2s will find new levels of personal efficiency and insights into relationships that can relieve many anxious moments.The resource guide in the appendix was an unexpected bonus. This book is also a great resource for the eager, new member of the workforce who wants to do well and have a balanced life.

This book is a real gem!, and one with many hidden facets. I learned many new tips and techniques about telecommuting and how to think about it, even though it is something that I've done off and on over the last 6 years. The book really shines in the area of lifestyle management---it really has a lot of worthwhile things to say about creating a life that will work for you. A life that integrates work into the bigger picture with all of the different priorities/challenges that stare all of us in the face every day. This book really tells you both how to work, and how to make your work work for you! The format is very accessible(I read some of the tips while waiting for meetings) and bitesized. The tip2 feature is a really cool way to apply the ideas and learnings. I'm recommending the book to all my friends who are telecommuting--or considering it. Fun, practical and impactful---you'll like it!

This is a great read in addition to being content rich, sometimes witty and very wise. I'm on the "management side" of the telecommuting challenge and found the advice to be practical and sound. I'm buying copies for all of my people working from home--a small investment with an expected big reward.
