I'm doing some research for an executive briefing, the opening of which will be on the "new economy" (technological innovation, perceived and real changes in the relationship between work/not work time, 'flex time', claims about productivity, etc).
I want to cite sources that these guys are going to buy (Fortune 50 execs and upper mgmt) That is, while I think EPIs treatment of flex time and avg hours worked/week is cool, I don't really want to cite EPI. ANyone know of material that says the same thing as EPI, but from an "acceptable" source?
this is what i've got so far, working outward:
on a surface skim: http://www.epinet.org/Issuebriefs/ib146.html http://us.ilo.org/news/prsrls/20010831_kilm.html http://www.ecb.int/pub/pdf/mb200107en.pdf
i don't need to go hog wild here. i'm just writing a basic overview as an intro/hook. the meat of this thing is really on VPNs and organizational sociology crap.
i thought of LOB, too, because I think Doug posted something about productivity stats awhile ago, something showing how they were bogus in so far as it's not clear that productivity is up b/c of technological innovation.
