Whether you just started working from home or you’ve been doing it for years the recent stay-at-home orders enacted by states across the country have created new circumstances that no one was prepared for. Individuals who were used to living alone are not necessarily used to being alone throughout the entire day. People who were used to working from home may not be used to having to compete with others in their household who are also trying to do so. Teams that were used to connecting in person are now having to find ways to do so virtually.

To compound things, many people’s homes weren’t planned with workplace wellbeing and ergonomics in mind so individuals are having to fine-tune their surroundings to accommodate their new temporary work spaces. All of this causes increased stress and can make it difficult for remote workers to stay engaged and productive. To combat these issues it is important to think holistically about your wellbeing. To help with that, Steelcase researchers have identified a checklist based on the six dimensions of wellbeing.

Collaboration

Strategies for Successful Remote Collaboration

Suddenly teams are finding themselves isolated from one another as they work remotely, often for the first time, unsure about how to get their work done. We all know collaboration is crucial in any workplace – but working remotely can create new challenges and obstacles to prevent successful collaboration and teamwork. Success requires teams to be actively engaged with one another in a rapid exchange of ideas, where teammates can build on each other’s thoughts and make concepts visible to each other. To achieve this, teams need to adopt new processes, embrace technology in new ways and foster a culture that is agile and adaptable.
