No doubt everyone reading this has already been affected by this virus – supply chain disruption and/or the measures being taken to avoid the spread of this virus through community transmission.
One recommended measure is to work from home whenever possible.
It’s not well known, but for several years Cubic has operated a totally decentralised remote working business model, using readily available technology to maintain a virtual office with all team members visible and audible to all other team members. Our VoIP phone system is an essential part of this.
We have often wondered why many other businesses don’t use the same model. But perhaps this crisis will be the catalyst for change.
For anyone considering this, I am happy to give you the benefit of the experience we have gained over the past few years, and an appraisal of the advantages and disadvantages of decentralised remote working. Call me on 09 3201062 or 021 328689, or email me at davea@cubic.co.nz
