No I didn't misspell the old nursery rhyme. Life is but a dream and so hopefully is Work for you. Wouldn't it be a shame if the activity that takes up almost half of your life between say 25 and 65 (excluding sleeping, washing, eating and commuting) is not worth your while. NWoW aims to redesign the Work environment so that it becomes that 'dream'. But it is quite a journey down the stream.
ROWE-ing your organization will help you getting there. ROWE stands for Result Only Work Environment. It is a great thing and I believe it a critical ingredient of the New Way of Organizing. However ROWE by itself is not enough. There is more the New Way of Organizing.
For today - a sunny Sunday here in Holland; time to enjoy it fully - I leave you with a picture that hints at one of the shortcomings of ROWE. The next blog will elaborate on them.
[Consider this part 4 in my series on the New Way of Organizing which in itself is one of the dimensions of the New Way of Working (NWoW). If you are just joining and want to catch up, start first here and then here]
