In Hungary, there is no future in teleworking?

Hungary over the past several hundred years, read the press published news of the benefits of teleworking. The future could see all this, but one year has elapsed after the other and still do not have anywhere in the big 'boom' of the tele. What is the reason that this area is one of the Hungarian toporog labor market? 7 reasons, which are unable to overcome, and nearly 400,000 employees, who expect big breakthroughs. To no avail?

"The future will be the key to the success of telework" - these and similar news in the last few years were filled with the Hungarian labor press, but you can see the labor market can hardly be considered "a huge explosion," or "all-the vast masses of teleworking."
The tele-off recorded in the background of the entire labor market has been affected by the economic crisis as well, but the real reasons to do this is not the case.
As a result, the real reasons why the Hungarian employers still refuses to face the possibility of tele-employment:
X = normal employment costs; tele =?

The labor market surveys for small and medium-sized enterprises is part of the background of economic instability due to the cost of the average employment over the longer term can not even calculated.
The costs involved in telework is not finished. Therefore, a common example is when the contractor's company, the homes have a go, and then 1-2 months later abandon it. According to experts, this can only be precise to avoid the budgetary framework and guidelines.

Why do not you ask?
The budget for the setting up of tele-work as well as the motivation and reporting techniques would have to be very important to know the experience of other companies who have experienced the tele.
"Party of the Hungarian people to ask" - this is more than one HR professional presentation I have heard, not by accident. Most people do not dare to ask others, while well aware of the fact, not asking anything.
The number of Internet and tele-work in the company case studies can be found. Simply a matter of contacting an experienced driver, and follow the directions.

Man v elusive, as the Internet, the virtual world a few can handle rationally. The specialized teleworking experts may take a decade or more before the Hungarian society in bridging the generation accepts the equivalence of virtual work for personal work.
Research data show that the biggest problem is that employers do not know what to do with the virtual work. It is still very much in the driver to hear that the manual labor of the work.

Motivated and easy to ask, but how?
This raises the question: how to motivate a virtual formand employment? "Cancel to go praise the workers" - it is ridiculous for any of the answers for small and medium sector is still so much of the view.
The tele-reporting, the ways and still not get a response so much.
In the background of the experts, the absolute lack of knowledge of teleworking is. Afraid of him, because they do not know. Solution: ask, ask, ask.

Only large IT developments?
In fact, the small and medium sector in IT development is quite expensive. One expert, requesting his name the biggest problem that the cost-effectiveness in particular, IT is often cheap construction defects required for tele-back, resulting in the need for further development of additional costs. In such circumstances, there is no wonder that many people heard the bad news does not dare to start a teleworking employment.
The experts, however, it is recommended that buy homes, start businesses, the work required is prepared specifically for this software. Thus, the telework program must calculate the cost of longer-term as well.
If it is leaking from the company's know-how ...

Most of the Hungarian employers work on the Internet, the first question raised by a sharp knowledge of corporate security. How to defend the company's knowledge of the involvement of the World Wide Web? The question is legitimate and however strange, it's still a mystery to even the largest companies as well. Yet it seems that the outstanding knowledge of computer security systems and in the long term, it is worth the risk.

Potential employees should think of
Already in 2008-the survey also showed that the tele-workers employed on fixed-term contracts, most of the employers concerned. In rare cases, over an indefinite period and are quite rare in the case where the contract terms and fees, the full confidence vote in the company of teleworking. Experts believe that this is a problem.
The home worker need to live in the same motivation, as staff working inside the company. 6.5 per cent of workers employed in such a teleworking, a fixed-term framework, as this segment of workers wanted a time limit of 90 percent, permanent homes, the working conditions and prospects want to.
The tele-forums and professional experts in each direction, should be developed to telework in the Hungarian employers. Where else can not, you are why the large companies like Microsoft and its worth it and worth teleworkers staff.

Not incidentally, because the EU average of 13-14 per cent tele-the standard of women in our country only 1,7-1,8 per cent of employed men and 2 per cent of teleworking.
It would be an undeniable need for it. In the last three-month period increased by 40,000 people, so it is now up to 378,000 people are registered unemployed, the number of people who lost their jobs. The new jobs and most of them "to find anything." Especially if it could telework.

To many, the unexpected economic crisis has taught anything in the market, is that companies need to be better prepared for unforeseen economic developments. One possible method of mapping the future, and that the present processes, taking into account the uncertainties, we will try to outline how to develop the industry over the next few years.
The American Marketing Association and the International Decision Strategies (Decision Strategies International - DSI) technology consulting company that outlined four possible scenarios for the future of marketing is expected.
The corporate planning in the past, mainly in financial forecasts, which was based on the numbers. This method also worked well, as long as the environment and the future was to be calculated. More recently, the financial data included in the planning of the next competitors, consumer behavior and marketing channels of information as well.
The changing market conditions, however, forcing companies to look beyond the quantitative variables, and business models involved in the total structure of tests. The scenario-based planning is to help companies that are less predictable, the market forecasts in addition to other possible alternatives are taken into account.
The various scenarios, the development of more companies realize the potential of the first signs of change. The different scenarios to take account of the following may be particularly useful:
- If the leadership abilities to anticipate or adapt to the market uncertainty is high.
- If you value the company has been costly surprises in the past.
- If the company does not create new opportunities.
- If the strategic thinking and too bureaucratic routine.
- If the industry has changed, or is expected to be about to change.
- If the company wants a single language or framework, the diversity of the dispatch.
- If there are strong differences of opinion within the company.
The AMA, the future challenges can be applied, if the marketing will become more flexible, while the various options for the design is being prepared for. In this regard, the important role of marketing within the company:
Initiative: the marketing, it must point to the need for scenario-based planning, especially if the company only focuses on short-term solutions and results
Cooperation to ensure the board should develop a common vision of the expected environmental changes and their potential consequences of organizational
Planning: Action Plan for the future according to different scenarios
The forces affecting the identification of: it should be ensured that the company will focus on the strategic point of view, the most important factors are:
Organizational structure
Competitiveness and marketing resources
Brand Strategy
Profitable growth model
And determining the forces that affect competition.
You agree with me? You think that, what do you think of this? To share with us here?

Facebook Won't Be Rushed Into Going Public Like Google

Google FriendConnect - Disabled by Facebook

Throughout 2002 and 2003 there was a ton of speculation concerning when Google would "finally" go public. Everyone knew the company was making a lot of money and growing fast, but it wasn't clear how big the company was nor how successful. The company's top execs insisted that they did not want to go public and tried to avoid any discussion of it. However, in early 2004, the company tripped a specific level that required them to start reporting their earnings publicly. If you have over 500 shareholders, even as a private company, you are required to file earnings reports, just as if you were a public company -- and at that point, Google execs realized there was no additional benefit in remaining private. So that single event pushed Google to finally IPO, and some were beginning to wonder if the same might push Facebook into an oncoming IPO.
It looks like that won't be happening.
Facebook's lawyers requested and received a special exemption from the SEC, allowing the company to not report its earnings publicly, even if it goes over 500 shareholders (which is likely to happen relatively soon). The exemption will remain in place until the company decides to go public or is acquired. You have to think that some folks at Google are kicking themselves for not trying to do the same thing. Either way, it's pretty clear that Facebook doesn't have the financial numbers that Google had at the time it went public, either -- so forcing Facebook to go public at this time probably would have made a lot less sense than it did for Google, who had fantastic earnings
