Guidance on remote work, with more to come
Helping businesses with communication and collaboration challenges they face on a daily basis is an essential part of our platform. Many businesses have chosen to use our platform to improve their daily workflow, but working remotely takes time to redefine this. We know that for so many of you, the shift to work remotely was unexpected. To help ease this transition, we’ve complied a brief list of positive remote working habits to get started with.
Location, location, location
Try find yourself a dedicated and comfortable spot to work that you can associate with your job and leave when you’re off the clock. That means get off the couch and definitely off the bed.
Have a plan
When working from home, you should also introduce a more structured daily plan. Usually our time and the structure of our day is influenced by other people. Your’re going to notice your day will be lacking the normal structure that you usually have. Time spent in self-isolation is better structured.
Over communicate
Think beyond email and use other digital tools that can better replicate the in-person office experience and provide for clear communication. Daily meetings can be held using video conferencing services like Zoom or Skype. This can provide you the structure to ensure accurate feedback on projects and ensure tasks are completed efficiently.
Stay healthy
During times like these, we’re all glued to the news. We’re continuing to monitor the situation with updates from the World Health Organisation, among other sources and guidelines. We are also committed to reassessing the situation and adjusting our plans accordingly. Don’t forget to stay active and healthy in this difficulty period.
Thank you for your trust in us. Let’s all stay happy, healthy and keep washing our hands!
