The Post-Geographic Office - Your Ticket to the World?

Michele Conlin of Business Week Online has recently written one of the more exciting articles for NuNomads I've seen.  Smashing the Clock describes Best Buy's new corporate policy in which employees (not frontline store employees but administrators, execs, etc) Are allowed to work when and where they want.  The initiative is called "ROWE" standing for Results Only Work environment.  Employees may come and go at anytime and work from anywhere.

More exciting are the numerous examples Conlin has collected of other companies that are implementing similar policies.  These companies include IBM, Sun Microsystems, and a Boston Consulting firm. It seems that the corporate world is finally waking up to the benefits in employee morale, productivity and savings to the companies in less need to provide physical work space.  In fact, the initiatives have been so successful, Chief Executive Brad Anderson of Best Buy has launched CultureRx, a subsidiary to help other companies go clockless.

So to those employees of IBM, Sun and other clockless companies, I say, "Come on over to NuNomad - the world is your oyster"!
