| Abstract: | The paper considers part-time work. The authors state that nearly one in ten professionals now works part-time. But all too often, part-time work creates as many problems as it solves. At best, many part-timers work more hours than they intended. At worst, they see their importance to their organizations dwindle. Drawing on two years of research investigating part-time engineers, financial analysts, IT specialists, and consultants, the authors present five strategies used by successful part-timers to make their unique position work for themselves and their companies. Taken together, these strategies not only help the part- timer deal with the organization but also make the organization itself more receptive to the possibilities of part-time work. |
