Abstract
This article introduces the nature and practice of managing mobile work in Europe. On basis of empirical analysis of five selected case studies from a large European research project, a number of enablers and barriers for the successful introduction of mobile work initiatives are presented and discussed. So far, research in the area of mobile work is limited to a few, often singular, case studies and lacks a systematic assessment of current types, practices and applications. The authors aim to fill this gap by providing a structured assessment of cross-industry cases to distillate a number of critical success factors of mobile work in practice.
