Hi there, just finished reading the book and I'm quite inspired by the content. The company I work for is doing some things right, but there is always room to improve. I need some insight from the world at large with regards to ROWE & consultants and how accountants see the world.
Pretty much all of our employees are 'professional consultants' or 'billable resources'. We work on both 'fixed-price' and 'time & materials' engagements. We are expected to fill in timesheets every week to help the company gauge profitability & growth (yes, the emphasis on 'time' does have its negative effects). What recommendations do you have to help the 'numbers' people see the benefits of a ROWE and still have a method to chart the financial growth of a company? Also, what about planning for positive growth? Finally, do people find that personal interactions suffer much in a ROWE? Thanks in advance.
