      Effective Telecommuting - 50minutes

      Issue: how can I work effectively from home? What are the keys to time management when working from home?

      Uses: telecommuting presents a real challenge in terms of time management. Being self-disciplined at home will enable you to be as efficient there as at the office.

      Professional context: working from home, telecommuting, time management, personal organisation.

      But telecommuting is not a synonym for lazing around. You must learn to manage your time and improve your organisation, as well as to reserve a space specifically dedicated to your career. Your employer
