One of my favorite corporate communicators, Shel Holtz, "works at the intersection of communication and technology" and is asking about remote workforces on LinkedIn.
What does a company need to do to ensure success with a remote workforce? I'm working on a blog post in response to a number of posts promoting digital nomads, remote workforces, telecommuting, etc. I agree in general, but worry that none of these posts talk about the work a company needs to do up front to ensure they can succeed. If you work remotely for a company, what have they done well and not so well? If you have experience, expertise, or a background on the topic, what steps do companies need to follow to make sure the model succeeds?
You can view the answers on LinkedIn.

I laughed so hard!
As I'm sitting here working and typing the sun is streaming in the window and my watch is catching the light and creating light dots on the wall. Apollo plays with the dots for a half-an-hour. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard! It was truly a funny thing to behold and took no effort on my part. :-)

Apollo Rocks
Yippy Ky Yay!
Matt comes back on Wednesday. Gordon & Vicky come back today as do Justin and Kelly. It’s shaping up to be a wicked July 4 weekend.
At work
I'm an IT project manager and we're preparing for a big redesign. In preparation we are deleting a lot of content from the site. By far my favorite response to "is this content still relevant, can we remove it from the site?" was this response today, "Shoot 'em in the head and bury the old timers!" (From my favorite old timer.)
