• Good mix of work & play
• Fewer distractions and more focus
• Used commute time for Netflix
• Developed up a few habits – cooking & meditating
• Picked up a Standing Desk as work hours increase sitting and that helped to nurture a new working style

I have never WFH and didn’t know the pros & cons but post-pandemic – WFH was a BIG surprise for me as my productivity levels increased drastically. I could plan my day as I would want as per my body clock. I could make maximum use of the time and work until late evenings as I would have taken my running breaks early evening and would be more mentally ready to work which would be unlikely in WFO. ROI also went up for most as it mostly zoomed calls between external customers and internal teams which translated to short precise conversations resulting in higher revenues.

I believe it will be a good mix of WFO + WFH and they should keep certain days as WFO were socializing and community building can be done which is critical for uplifting the energies and 2 days could be set aside as WHF. 5. Do you love to manage everything remotely? Honestly, if you ask – since I have been more prone to WFO over the past two decades and being more of a social person – didn’t like managing remotely but with the current trend shifting, have adapted to the same and now as things move – have started liking the remote culture too.

• I normally work in a WeWork office which has a wonderful community and an interesting conversation is only ever a few meters away.
• Working from the office gives structure to my day and separation between my social and work life.
• I feel networking is essential to most startups and a co-working space enables plenty of it regularly.
• I have yet to find the home equivalent of tapping your colleague on the shoulder, quickly solving a problem, and going about your day.
• I’m a massive people person and I feed off energy so motivating myself during the tough times is easier with the company.

My productivity’s been good and bad during WFH. At times I’ve been able to focus more due to less regular interruptions, likewise, there have been situations that could have been solved instantly in an office environment. I’ve missed the energy that an office can bring with people bouncing off each other so those wonderful ‘aha’ moments that are crucial to startups are far sporadic.

I’m a big believer in most things having pros and cons so having gone through this pandemic it seems very obvious to me that my future is a mixture of WFH and WFO. Utilizing both spaces for their benefits and adjusting the work structure accordingly. Plus WeWork never runs out of biscuits whereas my flat seems to regularly.

I struggle to manage everything remotely because I crave a face to face check-in. I believe evolution has given us this wonderful ability to pick up on all the nuances to figure stuff out and it didn’t bank on us doing it as floating heads on a screen.

• Flexibility
• No commute
• Ability to multi-task
• Cozier
• Fewer interruptions

• Zero commute time
• Time to see the kids, do the school run
• Flexibility to deal with clients in other time zones
• Ability to respond to local real-world issues/jobs that need doing
• See more of loved ones

2018, 17 & 19 were very successful and productive years, not having to commute to an arbitrary workplace elsewhere removed barriers to productivity. 2020 was challenging but not because of working from home.

We now have new employees who are more open to remote working than they would have been prior to covid-19

Most things can be done this way & for the last year, it has not been a matter of choice anyway – rather something that just needed to be done this way.

Although my wife occasionally gripes about going off to work, she grudgingly admits to being much more productive away from home. As for me, my home office is a piece of heaven on earth.

There’s no doubt that introverts handle shelter-in-place better than extroverts, which explains our respective inclinations.

However, the additional perks are many:

• No travel time. I’m up early each morning, grab a quick breakfast, and usually settle down in front of my computer by 8:00.
• Reference books are close at hand.
• If I want a change of scenery, I can set up shop in the dining room or on the front porch.
• I don’t have to plan ahead for lunch.
• If my workload is light or I can’t get my mind focused, I can head for the basement workout room or tend to household chores that would need to get done later.
• If a repairman needs to come by or UPS needs a signature, I don’t have to rearrange my schedule to be home.

There is one downside. Sometimes my wife is on vacation, which reminds me that to really make a home office work, you have to get everyone else to leave.

• An ability to have face-to-face (more human and open) communication with the team and other departments
• Much easier team-building and higher employee satisfaction+retention
• A healthier work-life balance
• Opportunities for socialization
• Much more movement and ‘natural’ physical activity

I’ve been working from home for 3+ years, so I didn’t feel a great change! In my experience, work productivity and ROI are much higher without coffee breaks and small-talk with co-workers. And I nail more hours, as it’s challenging to draw the line between work and home now. This is an issue for the majority of people — numerous studies reveal that people have been working more hours during the pandemic.

As a manager, one of my goals is to empower my team to work passionately and willingly, rather than just putting in 9 hours and calling it a day. We’ve had a chance to taste a work-from-home mode and a lot of us are not that eager to come back to the 9-to-6 fixed working hours. In my opinion, the best future trend will be to combine the possibility of working from home 1-2 days a week and enjoy the social office life for the remaining 3 working days. I’d go for it as well and I’m not alone! The research states that 72% of surveyed workers would prefer a mix of remote and office work.

I’d describe it as a ‘love-hate relationship’ It’s a wonderful experience that allows me to ‘feel and read’ people much better, as well as to be creative as a manager and solve unusual challenges. And it’s a great chance to build relationships with a team based on consciousness and trust.

Is it always easy? Not. The office work allows for a more personal approach and can save a lot of time spent on the numerous conversations and explanations over Zoom. We’re social creatures that need a ‘human’ touch, eye-to-eye contact, and, sometimes, inspirational or useless talks during coffee breaks that contribute to team-building much more than regular video syncs!

• You can save a lot of money as there is no extra expenditures on transport
• A chance to choose your work location
• A chance to enjoy being an introvert
• A chance to improve your health conditions
• Ability to focus or “better focus alternative”
• Flexibility of your working schedule
• Improved quality of your work
• No job validation procedure
• No stress that comes from work environment
• Overall health improvement that comes working at home
• To be more environmentally friendly. You get a chance to set your own rules

I am not an office person. Mostly, I work from home.

• Wake up at the same time every morning
• Create a Designed Work Area
• Stay connected
• Taking Breaks
• Take new courses and get extra professional knowledge

2019 was a successful year as I have been working at home for an IT company where I have got a lot of technical knowledge that further allowed me to become a successful tech writer. 2020 was less successful and more challenging as I had to shift from working online for a regular salary to working from home as a freelance. It was rather difficult to search for new customers and to find them.

The employee experience will continue to be a top area of focus for many companies as many of them are struggling to improve their performance by creating a diverse and inclusive environment and by adding high levels of touch throughout the employee life cycle.

Yes and no. To some extend I like managing things remotely but definitely not everything…So I will put it like 50/50. Yes. I like that I have some privacy that comes with my home office job, but at times you feel like you want to discuss some issues with your colleagues and there is no such a chance. Lack of communication is something I do not like about working remotely. Also, sometimes I miss my office and the comfort of working with others like drinking coffee with them and enjoying my time in the company of like-minded people.

• Both can be 10, depending on the company and colleagues.
• Communication, Teamwork, Empowerment, Trust, and Drive – top 5 for both.
• Better WFH for both but at the expense of less downtime.
• More WFH but balanced with an office for staying aligned.
• No. Face to face is better for some situations and rapport.

It’s a close match between WFH and WFO – with pros and cons to each. During the high times of the pandemic (which unfortunately is surging again), working from an office poses too many health risks.

Nevertheless, added benefits of working physically together, such as enhanced idea sharing and creativity, streamlined collaboration, and frictionless communication, are important to maintain the company’s culture and ‘spark‘.

Therefore, a hybrid approach (2/3 days at home and in the office) makes the most sense and captures the best of both worlds, even after the pandemic alleviates.

Working from home has always been something we saved for exceptions, but ever since the pandemic started, we started to realize the benefits of having large teams working remotely.

Along with the immediate benefits of keeping everyone safe from potential infection and not wasting time on a daily commute, I believe the biggest benefit is flexibility.

Flexibility to see family, cultivate non-work activities (training, cooking, home improvements) that you never found time for, and to be able to do all of that while staying fully on board and in sync, and in full productivity.

As mentioned before, we will embrace a hybrid model, that will enable more flexible hours and office-time, contributing to a much better work-life balance.

At the same time, we will continue to cultivate a strong culture of excellence and innovation, which requires people to be physically together, at least once in a while.

Personally, I enjoy working remotely, but miss having a busy office and informal discussions in hallways and at the coffee machine.

In field sales even before COVID, I spend as much time as possible out with customers so working from home usually saves me travel time, etc. I do miss the “drive-by” conversations with workers and feel a bit less connected with them not going into an office.

I am more productive because I have no commute time and I get to balance things out with home to take care of a reasonable amount of personal matters. I tend to have better equipment at home and other than the occasional need to get on the VPN to access resources I have better network speed.

(The need for VPN is getting less necessary every day.)Through the use of Video conferencing etc. I can stay connected and am happier at home.

My experience is probably different as I have been in sales for the last 3 decades and have worked from home a majority of the time. I have teammates that need the Office Experience to feel connected so I hope going forward that the option to WFH or WFO are selected by the employee to where they perform best.

Our company has operated 100% remote from its inception, so not a lot has changed for us in the past year. Our team culture embraces an outputs based approach, so performance declines have not been a concern for us.

Many of the leadership teams we advise have faced challenges with the transition. Much of it is related to legacy managerial mindsets, face time, and trust. We encourage them to focus on results, not time worked or meetings attended.

We also encourage them to set clear boundaries and share stories about how we do it. I tell my team that I might send a note late at night because it is on my mind, but I do not expect them to respond.

Draw lines and give your people a chance to step away from work so they do not feel like they are on all the time. Stress during this time is already high. Your team needs the opportunity to step away and recharge.

The elimination of commute times is a huge win for many. That time can be allocated to other areas of their life.

Significant challenges of working from home include having a dedicated space to work from (for focused work and meetings) and child care.

The child care and school availability situation can be a significant issue, especially with younger children. E learning can be an exceptionally high maintenance event with young students.

There is also the loss of casual conversation and socialization that comes from being in close proximity to others. Chat and other online communications can help, but can’t replace face to face conversation. This socialization is great for our mental well-being, culture, and the sense of being connected.

A hybrid model would likely make a lot of sense for many organizations. The past year has shown that remote working works, so employees will come to expect this flexibility in the future.

Organizations that have significant investments in physical space may want everyone in the office, but may need to remain flexible to stay competitive in the labor markets. This option also gives employees the flexibility to select the best working situation for them.

The post Must-Read Survey | Work from Home(WFH) Or Work from Office(WFO)? appeared first on Tech Research Online.

Work from home has become a new norm but it hasn’t been easy for most of us. We are having meetings and attending conferences from the safety of our homes. According to the Clutch survey, 66% of the U.S. workers are currently working from home from 17% before the pandemic.

When asked if they would prefer working from home even after the pandemic, 39% of workers said that they would rather work in an office, while 40% said that they would rather work remotely. About 21% have no preference.

There are also several advantages of remote working which are encouraging more and more companies to permanently adopt this model. According to Gartner CFO Survey, 74% intend to shift employees to remote work permanently while nearly three in four CFOs plan to shift at least 5% of on-site employees to permanently remote positions post-COVID-19.

Remote working is providing several opportunities for both employees and companies. However, there are several issues which employees are facing.

The post Top 5 Best Productivity Apps For Working From Home appeared first on Tech Research Online.

In the past month, remote working has risen sharply as more people are getting the day’s tasks done at home. We should not forget that the concept of remote working or work from home has become possible due to digitalization. However, it has become equally important to consider that there are still challenges of remote working and getting tasks done at home. The most common problem faced in remote working is struggling to unplug after work.

Furthermore, communication and collaboration is also obvious barrier when working from a different location than teammates. Nevertheless, there are several apps at our disposal to solve this problem. Other challenges may include lack of motivation when removing all the gentle nudges of having superiors and that sense of being at work.

We are addressing all these challenges in this blog and all of the apps that can be a help to overcome these. Recommended tools in these blogs are free and the once that are paid also come with a free version. Their tools can be adopted by companies to improve the workflow and turn remote working into a truly life-changing move.

#1. Slack (Windows, Android, Web, Mac, and iOS)

Slack is an ideal communication tool for remote workers and is designed specifically for teams. Organized instant messaging channels can be easily joined and left by team members.

It prevents such messages from interfering with project-centric conversations.

#2. Zoom (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Web)

Zoom offers a full suite of communication and video conferencing tools. Businesses can leverage this application for the majority of remote team meetings and chat.

These teams can be of up to 100 participants and will only need to upgrade if meetings are longer than 40 minutes.

#3. Serene (Mac)

Serene can help in achieving maximum productivity every day and its free app for Mac.

#5. Google Drive (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android & web)

Google Drive can be termed as a cloud alternative to Microsoft Office. However, it provides far more useful features for remote workers. The file-sharing and collaboration features for businesses such as team viewing in Google Drive are convenient and better than Microsoft Drive.

Another big issue for Mac users is that the MS apps regularly crash which is not the case of Google Drive. However, google drive and docs have their downside that is they have to be online.

Individual remote workers can use the free version of Google Drive as it offers more than enough features. However, for larger cloud storage than the default 15GB space businesses can upgrade storage plans without paying up for G Suite.

#6. Calendar (iOS, Android, web app)

Google Drive and docs come loaded with feature however, Google Calendar doesn’t provide some of the advanced features. Calendar is a more feature-rich alternative that connects all the needs into a single interface.

• Easy scheduling: It schedules team meetings, eliminating the need for email exchange.
• Meeting transcriptions: Provides automatic transcripts for meetings.
• Synced events: It syncs all the events across other calendar apps.

Aside from integrating all of user calendar apps, Calendar’s star feature is the way it handles meetings. Instead of arranging video chats or other meetings with dizzying emails between multiple team members, Calendar allows anyone to choose and book meeting times during user availability hours while ensuring there are no conflicts with existing meetings or tasks.

#7. Zapier (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android & web)

Zapier can save endless amounts of time through its simple automation tool. Users can skip the fuss of constantly switching between multiple apps to and create Zaps to automate these tasks. Zapier can send data between apps such as Gmail and Google Drive to automatically upload email attachments for remote access. It can even automatically add new time entries to a spreadsheet for accuracy.
