The development of technology has created a great benefit for the modern employee: the ability to work remotely. During the last years the number of telecommuters has significantly increased.

Now more than ever, work-life balance is an obvious necessity, and many employees are making it work through telecommuting. What do people from different positions say about this trend? 

Is remote work meant for everyone? Is it only beneficial for employees or do employers and business have anything to gain? Find the answers in this article written by Ali James, a writer for the Knoxville News Sentinel.

Wouldn’t it be nice to wake up every morning feeling like this is the best day in your life? Unfortunately, nobody wakes up extremely happy and motivated every morning, even happy people.

There are some things that you can do to be happier in the long run. Dr. Travis Bradberry, co-author of the bestselling book, Emotional Intelligence 2.0, and the co-founder of TalentSmart, has provided several habits that will guarantee a great mood and make you happy on a daily basis.

Many companies are opening up to the idea of working from home. It is not an easy task for many companies, especially for those in the traditional industry, to transit from in-person work to remote work. 

The biggest challenge is how to manage your remote team to work effectively. The first thing an employer needs to do is to choose the right remote working tools for his/her team. Different types of remote working tools, such as time management, project management, communication, etc. help the employees to know the task orders, ultimate goal, their own responsibilities clearer. This will largely improve productivity.

Second, the employer needs to ensure that each employee knows how to use the tool. This can be hard for some people who find it difficult to adapt new digital software. Try to choose the easiest tool which fits your basic needs for your team.

Leaning on the right technology can help your organization, employees, and even business partners to rapidly adapt to the digital working mode for the continuity of your business.
