WORK FROM HOME
Getting Started
- Have you suddenly been mandated to work from home?
- Are you finding it a bit challenging?
- Do you think working from home one day a week is different than working from home on a long term basis?
If you have answered yes, to these three questions you are feeling the same way a lot of people are right now.
There is information overload from what is happening in the world today, and that information is changing daily or hourly at the moment so we are spending a lot of our mental time and energy processing what is really happening.
You are also being asked to change your daily behaviours, stay home – either by yourself or with your family, and also continue to be productive at work.
It’s a lot but you can do this. You can get through this and be a great contributor.
I want to help you if I can.
I have worked from home for over 15 years. I can help you find ways that work for you to not only be productive but also to be happy to be working from home. To make this your new “normal” as quickly as possible.
Hermie Abraham from Advocation Employment Law and I had a discussion about how you can get started working from home and be productive.
This is a big change and one of the biggest challenges is feeling isolated from your colleagues or given the current situation from other people in general.
I have created a group on facebook – How to Work From Home – Challenges and Solutions.
This group is a community of like minded people that are trying to move forward and be the best they can be during these uncertain times.
There are a lot of members that have worked from home for a long time and they also have great advice to give.
Plus, I have added daily chats by the water cooler – you just log into zoom for 30 minutes and you can get a bit of social interaction that is very different than the interaction going on in your home.
There is also Thursday night Happy Hour and Friday’s are “Let’s Lunch.
I am trying to add components that will help people feel less isolated and more connected. Not to mention it might provide some great new networking opportunities.
Please feel free to share with others that you think might need some assistance.
