Working from Home...

Today I received a question from a friend about how he could convert his "corporate" training responsibilities (services) into home-based services.

In brief, getting at some potential answers to this question will depend on several scenarios:
  • What is your vision for this initiative?
  • In what ways does your vision match, or conflict with, the existing process?
  • What is (are) your role(s) as tech trainer?
  • What specific content do you teach?
  • How are the training programs formatted & delivered?
  • What role(s) do you play in development/delivery?
  • What is the specific audience for each session?
  • Is your proposed home-based work related to developing programs or delivering them?
  • In what ways will the corporate culture support or inhibit your concept?
  • What is the nature of your in-home office in terms of your ability to provide quality services?
  • Will your existing programs convert easily to home-based delivery?
  • Can your audience handle the conversion?
  • Will you experience negative backlash when you are no longer available to conduct face-to-face operations (or when you reduce this time)?
Answer these questions and a high percentage of the request is going to become more clear.
