This paper features a number of enablers and barriers for the successful introduction of mobile work initiatives. Information and communication technology‐enabled mobile work environments are an emerging phenomenon in Europe. On the basis of current theory and the empirical analysis of five selected case studies from a large European research project both facilitating factors and possible obstructions are illustrated and discussed.
