TELEWORKING

Telecooperation...
... and Telework

Telework becomes appropriate for a much higher proportion of people and jobs when an organisation is effectively networked, and the managers and staff have developed telecooperation skills. For individual teleworkers, telecooperation methods provide enhanced communication with colleagues, plus the ability to connect with professional and other networks of people, regardless of their home location.

... and Teletrade

Teletrade (electronic commerce) is possible without telecooperation (for example when a customer buys a commodity product directly from a website without any need for person-to-person contact), but the use of telecooperation methods opens up a much wider range of products and services to teletrade possibilities. In any market where the customer needs (or wants) to get advice and guidance (before, during or after the sale), telecooperation methods and skills are essential.
