[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a global organization. I supervise a global team. I have employees in Stockholm, Warsaw, New York, Singapore and London. The boss is based in Ohio and travels constantly.

Please explain why I need to commute to an office to take my calls with these people every day and how that makes me more productive? I don’t actually work with the other people who are physically in the office, except rarely and on those rare occasions we do arrange face-to-face meetings (but we don’t spend daily time together since we all are working on multiple projects).

And if you agree I can do the same job from home as I could managing a global team from an office, do you also agree that I am equally productive in both settings?

Or should I have to be physically present in the office for the 0300 conference calls with Singapore?[/quote]

This.  But someone who works in healthcare like the PP or my boomer mother can’t understand this.  They can’t wrap their heads around the fact that my team members and people I work with are not even in my region. It’s like they think we all have offices next to each other including clients.
