It used to be the case that staff worked the way they were told to by their employers. It was therefore the objectives of the organisation – efficiency, in most cases – that defined the working style of the majority.

New technologies are changing work styles again. Most significantly, smart mobile technology and home broadband make it easier than ever to work outside the office. The notion that work is somewhere you go is now overshadowed by the concept that it is something you do.
