Businesses with Remote Workers

Times have changed and more virtual businesses are springing up across the country. Actually, the company I work for has been a virtual company since 2008 and we were actually discussing our new storefront property yesterday before seeing this article from the Harvard Business Review suggesting that virtual employees are actually better and more engaged. Why the world may still believe there is stability in a company having a storefront, the article says that virtual employees are more engaged and the leaders have better communication by utilizing the tools available. Even bosses 50 ft away barely talk to each other then by email. Virtual leaders talk more via phone, video conferencing and instant messaging.
