None of the above
3. What would you say is your # 1 concern about working in a virtual environment?*
Trust. Not being able to know whether or not the virtual colleague or employee is really working
Lack of Efficiency and Productivity. There are too many distractions in a home or remote environment that may cause productivity to suffer
Lack of Accountability. Have no way-or it is difficult-to control those who are entrusted to do a task. Feel a sense of helplessness
Lack of Formal Standards. No set of accepted standards on how to educate and train a workforce on how to operate successfully in a virtual environment
Waste of Money. I would be winging it. It could turn into a money pit and affect my credibility with my colleagues and superiors
Been There Done That. We've tried it before and, overall, it's been a bad experience. So we don't want to repeat the same mistake
None. I don't have any concerns about working in a virtual environment.
