Prime explained, “We need to be working with men in a wider sense.” Not just senior men, she continued – the group wants to work with men at mid and emerging levels as well. “The leaders of tomorrow, we need to be engaging them,” she said.

Comment on Should Managers Telework? by Kathryn Kadilak

Kathryn Kadilak — Fri, 30 Mar 2012 15:58:00 +0000

In my experience over the years (now going on 18) as a work-life official, telework manager, and teleworking manager — I have to disagree with much of Dr. Golden’s conclusions – and, unfortunately, it is this type of published research that has a chilling effect on telework acceptance among senior leaders. In recent research my partners and I conducted at the Dept. of Homeland Security, we found that managers who telework and their staffs found that communication actually improved (because it became more deliberate) and in-person interaction was achieved through planned “all hands” meetings — similar to what Kyra Cavanaugh suggests later in the article. Our research yielded myriad benefits resulting from managers and employees teleworking in a planned and thoughtful way.

Dr. Golden describes an environment in which the manager teleworks and, apparently, the employees don’t. In all my years in the field, I have never encountered that situation. Further, it assumes that managers are away from the primary workplace for a significant amount of time. Again, that would be rare at best. Typically, managers telework on an episodic basis. It is actually very beneficial for managers to experience telework so that they can develop a true understanding of what this work arrangement entails and better determine the compatibility of individual staff members (their ability to work independently, being a self-starter, well-organized, etc.) with remote work. You can get all the training available on managing in a telework environment, but nothing really replaces personal experience.

In our telework consulting business, we strongly encourage managers to telework and have found that it positively influences acceptance and enhances a “culture” of telework. In today’s world, with all of the technology available for virtual communication and the comfort level younger generational workers have with it, why promote an old school, antiquated management style? Isn’t there a middle ground?
