adapting to a changing workplace

most businesses today are smaller, leaner and not as structured as they were 20 years ago. but the most significant change in the organizational makeup of most businesses has less to do with the infrastructure and more to do with the basic nature of jobs,and the working arrangements of the people who hold those jobs.  you can no longer think of today's workplace as the specific building or piece of real estate where employees perform their jobs. today is the age of the telecommuter and the virtual office. thanks to wireless connections,the internet,video conferencing,smartphones,and other technology,many businesses can run efficiently even though the key players never meet face to face.
