By Equipped – to maximize your ability to work flexibly you will need to have the right equipment and make proper use of it. Understand what your organisation is making available (both hardware and software) and learn how to use it.  You really must attend any training offered as it will be invaluable in helping you get the most out of any resources. Learn how to access your files remotely from wherever you are and learn what new software is being made available.  Your organisation may be deploying collaboration software such Yammer or Huddle, communication platforms such as Skype for Business (formerly known as Microsoft Lync) or WebEx  which will help you keep in touch with your team or systems that allow you access specialist software from home (like Citrix) and manage documents and access work processes (such as eDocs or Civica)
