After an intriguing weekend checking out WordPress and learning about alternatives to transcription software I am still convinced that perception and the ability to understand different cultures and be able to learn nuances and work as a team is very important to aide a recovering community. The global financial crisis is being looked at as a negative issue instead of being embraced as a time to step back and learn from previous attitudes and benefit from skills and resources available now.
Given the benefits of hiring a virtual assistant / remote worker I am curious as to the reason why it seems to take Australian businesses longer to embrace this industry as an alternative to the constraints associated with employing an employee especially in seasonal downtimes and / or economic crises. Surely the new award changes will shake up the industry and encourage personal assistants and the like to begin their own virtual assistant businesses. We will be able to judge this in only four months.
