If you're in a domain, you can create a GPO to enable remoting. See http://www.briantist.com/how-to/powershell-remoting-group-policy/

You can also use psexec to remotely execute PowerShell (see "whatyousay"'s answer at the bottom), passing in enable-psremoting as a script to execute.

psexec \\[computer name] -u [admin account name] -p [admin account password] -h -d powershell.exe "enable-psremoting -force"

If you're doing it for a large number of systems, GPO is probably best - although you could wrap a PowerShell script around the psexec version to loop through a list of computers.
