With remote working becoming increasingly commonplace, this slide presentation shows how today’s remote and flexible employee can add value every hour. Remote working, flexible working, working-from-home and out-of-office. All common demands from today’s workers - and not just Millennials. But when working takes place outside the four walls of your office, how can today’s organisation aim for sky-high productivity? The answer can be found in two words: working day. Dawn to dusk doesn’t specify a location. And today’s collaborative work methods can keep people happy and productive, wherever they work from. Find out what productivity means today, then check out this hour-by-hour planning guide to remote working nirvana.

them into three.
Win-Win.

You made your
presence felt.

multi-tasked.

work, in one day.
