@patio11 I really like the @hyperink bonus: you buy the book for yourself, and can then gift the book to your friends. Brilliant.

@patio11 tell me more! Was that a good route for you to go? (as opposed to producing the e-book yourself?)

@lxt does Mozilla have a good framework for managing remote teams? Is it published anywhere I can read it?

@amyhoy to me this is different. It's saying: the issue isn't about "work from home" it's about how we lead our people.

@amyhoy Simplistic as an outline (each point could be a separate post) but has been helpful for me as a team leader.

@amyhoy ha ha. I appreciate it. It's odd though: that 3 step focus really helped me as a manager (supervising a local + remote team of 10)

@amyhoy but this is management. It's both. Hire great people + figure out what works.

@amyhoy absolutely. That's why I say managers need to empower people to do their best work.

@amyhoy I don't think so. Maybe hard to enact, but not a hard concept.

@thebakerruns you could be right: this might be their tactic. ;) It still seems like an odd strategy to me.

@thebakerruns thanks man! True; that could be their intention, but the optics are terrible! (if they're hoping to attract new people)

@Lockedown_ such an odd message for them to send to their entire staff. If there are "slackers" those should be dealt with individually.

@patio11 Yes: it seems in terms of (future) sales, being able to talk about past wins would be beneficial. Is this what you mean?

@amyhoy @rrhoover interesting about TimeHop: I loved it when it was an email; don't use it as a "push" based iOS app.
