The world we live in is changing and its changing rapidly. Whether this is driven by technology, globalization or in response to specific crises, there is no doubt that the workplace of today needs to constantly adapt to ongoing changes in order to remain efficient and competitive. In more traditional work settings, the definition of a good employee was someone who came to the office on time 9 A.M sat at their desk and work hard, taking directions from their managers and following the rules. This model employee would be there rain or shine, always appearing busy until it was time to go home at 6 P.M But with the development of smartphones and internet technologies, many companies are starting to form virtual teams with team members living in different time zones, and employees are now finding themselves answering emails, attending meetings and working on reports from home outside their usual working hours. People now need to work smarter and not just harder.
