I love Fast Company – if I could only read one magazine ever – it would be FC.  If I could read two – I would re-read Fast Company.  Article for article the best publication on the market.

Recently, FC had an article about the expectations you put on your employees, after hours: “It’s 10 pm, Do you know where your employees are? 4 Steps to set after-hour “work” expectations.”

    Thanks for sharing this link! I just had the same discussion with the group I support. While the VP and directors prefer to catch up on e-mails over the weekend, they don’t expect the same from their teams. However, a leader (who is no longer with the organization) set the weekend e-mail precedent years ago, and no one thought to open up the discussion again once he left. To make the expectations clear, the VP recently announced at a town hall that no one should be e-mailing over the weekend, unless it’s an emergency or it’s by their own choice. Powerful stuff, hearing that from the big boss! This article stresses that they conversations should go deeper, and I plan on sending it to all my line managers.
