[Ipg-smz] The train from hell?

[Kishore Jethanandani]

Hi,

     Companies are so wedded to on-site work ostensibly because it aids
collaboration. Oh my, there is more politics than collaboration. At a
recent Singularity University Summit, one speaker reported statistics from
a survey which found that, when workers are asked anonymously,
ninety-percent said they would prefer to work alone. The conclusion was
that we need more co-ordination, not collaboration.

Best,


Kishore
