The New Nine-to-Five

Good statement from the ROWE blog:

We shouldn’t be judging people for how they decide to approach their work.  It’s that simple. As long as the work is getting done, and as long as people have the freedom to operate in the best way to get that work done, then there is no crazy. And nine-to-five is not a badge of honor, but just one of many options.

I’ll be posting more about the nature of a results-only-work-environemnt (ROWE) in the future.

    Good quote. Our company is actually looking into a ROWE-like change. Looking forward to your thoughts.

    Matt, have you already read their book “Why Work Sucks” – if so, do you recommend it?

    Yes, and I would very much recommend it.
