by David Chan, Alex Tran, Allyn Geer (Editor)

The technological revolution is feeding this change. The need for physical interaction is rapidly becoming somewhat obsolete, being replaced with a wide range of communication tools that connect people “virtually”.This book describes tools and provides resources to enhance any organization’s virtual office start-up or transition to a virtual office business model. It may also help companies already existing entirely in electronic or cyber-space.The technological revolution cannot be denied. In fact, beneficial changes in the virtual world are occurring so fast, it is becoming easier to imagine an eventual and meaningful decline in commercial office space demand. This book is necessary for 21st century CEOs, CFOs, and business majors – the next generation entrepreneurs and business leaders. It will raise awareness of marvelous, liberating changes taking place in today’s global economy.

Very much a white paper

Very much a white paper

Don't let my lack of stars influence you too much. This is a white paper with tons of footnotes. Close to an academic paper. Dryer than I expected. And not what I thought I was getting.
