In a lot of the companies I have been working with lately I have been trying to explain to managers that they need to stop measuring people by when they arrive in the office and/or how many hours they are in front of the computer. Too many staff are not doing much but because they turn up early and leave a little late they are the star employees. I have been telling the management to measure individuals by performance and how many "widgets" they produce, get done, chase, enter in the system, send off (or whatever they are doing) in a day. That way the company can get over half the staff to work remotely half the time and save a small fortune on office space. I get looked at blankly by managers who have never done any training in management and they have no idea what to do with the information I am giving them.
