Out of Office

This is the only complete, practical, and up-to-date how-to-guide for everyone who works outside the office (or is considering doing so). Both a reference and tutorial, it addresses all the personal issues and tradeoffs associated with out-of-office work, helping you assess whether it makes sense for you, and solve the problems most often associated with it. Unlike competitive books that are painfully out of date, it reflects all that's been learned about the human side of out-of-office work in the past decade. Packed with real stories from real people, it addresses today's realities: what it takes to run a meeting from a coffee shop, manage a Skype call from 35,000 feet aboard an airplane, handle deployment to an "undisclosed location” in service to your country; or juggle the demands of a domestic situation while you're working at home all day. From setting limits to making technology serve (not enslave) you, Out of Office covers it all. It'll help you decide whether out of office work is right for you now... and, if it is, it'll help you make it work better than it ever has before.
