This document discusses the benefits and challenges of technology-enabled mobility in the workplace. It notes that modern technologies now allow employees to work remotely using portable devices and collaboration/communication software. This brings advantages like lower commute costs, better work-life balance, increased productivity, and the ability to have 24/7 customer contact. However, there are also downsides like always being "on call", privacy issues, connectivity/licensing concerns, and ensuring proper career progression and visibility for remote employees. The document examines the various technologies and software that enable remote work as well as barriers that must be overcome to fully implement mobility programs.
