Leading MBA institute the London Business School has found out that by the year 2020, around half the workforce will be engaged in working remotely. Yet in a market research conducted by FlexJobs recently, it emerged that very few firms have gone ahead with the process of quantifying the ROI for working remotely. It is a trend that is spreading fast, yet organizations are not working to best leverage the same. Firms are reluctant because they feel that certain work processes can’t be done from home. Also part time schedules confound a lot of regular workers. The commitment sometimes goes missing from the freelance workers. This needs to change if we are to experience the paradigm shift by 2020.
