Clearly, there is a need to have better communication between practitioners and researchers as to issues of importance to each, and on how they can benefit from one another’s work. In exploring the gap, several factors become apparent which may have a role in creating part of this gap, for example, the multidisciplinary nature of the topic, the time-intensive research methodologies required to perform relevant field research and the lack of proper definition of the unit of analysis. Multidisciplinary Nature The problems faced by managers are multidisciplinary in nature.

Yet, practitioners do not seem to view this area as a major concern. However, we believe that this might be a justifiable gap because there is a need for some researchers to address longer-term issues about societal effects of virtual work on individuals, organizations and society. For example, research on work-family conflicts or the effects of remote work on pollution levels is needed, but is of little direct or immediate interest to most managers. Another area where researchers seem interested in different questions than practitioners is the characteristics of teleworkers.
