Greg started out his presentation with a video depicting the glorious telework lifestyle:

Telework as a platform

Telework hurdles:

• Management concerns
• Cost concerns
• Decentralized process
• Component overload
• Purchasing complexity

Telework as a product/platform:

Officescape has created a “5 steps in 30 days” program to start your telework program:

• incorporating key components of telework
• turning key components into turn-key solutions
• managed billing- you can split bills between user and company (ie. internet)
