| Annotation | This guide is designed to help business managers discover and implement innovative working methods which improve productivity and customer service, save money, and enable employees to balance their work and personal lives. It uses case studies to illustrate: the benefits of adaptable business model (West Bromwich Tool and Engineering Company and BT); key principles (Sainsbury's); creating a flexible workplace (National Grid); key management skills (Clock, a digital agency); flexibility for everyone in all types of jobs (IBM); and problem solving (Addleshaw Goddard, a law firm). Four employees also recount their experiences of flexible working. Weblinks to further information sources are suggested. (RH). |
