Work smarter. Live happier.
I've been one in the past, and I've definitely met a few throughout the years. That week I was on sick leave but still volunteered to work from home and ended up working overtime daily without anyone asking me to do so, and without anyone praising me for it, it will always haunt me.
The real challenge is not to keep turnover rates low whatsoever. The real challenge is to rearrange the players on the field in the most effective way for both the players to feel content and the game not to be disrupted.
From eccentric lone wolfs to rising trend and, why not, world domination, digital nomads have predicted it all quite well. Starting as outsiders challenging the traditional workplace and confident enough to embrace minimalism to survive the tough conditions of moving from one place to another all that often, they have significantly evolved through time. With COVID-19 shedding light on this modern nomadic lifestyle and creating room for new opportunities, digital nomads are finally offered an official professional identity through newly launched digital nomad visas all around the globe! So, whether you are an experienced digital nomad or an aspiring one, here you'll find everything you need to know to start planning your next trip.
So, let's get down to business and discuss the concept of outside offices, one of the most intriguing, outside the box ideas that has attracted the attention of nearly anyone who is even slightly interested in how work spaces will be shaped in the days to come. A controversial blend of futuristic elements and going back to basics at the same time, with the right dose of ''how can we make this actually work in the long-term?''.
Attending an in-depth work-life balance workshop can be eye-opening and give you all the tools you need to do your own research and get a deeper understanding of how to achieve your own personal work-life balance free from both external and internal distractions. One has rarely the chance to attend one such workshop, let alone two! Well, lucky me, I attended two in one week!
Work-life balance. Sounds great, feels comforting and seems achievable, right? You wake up in the morning fresh from an 8-hours sleep, jog with your dog, take a shower singing Sinatra, enjoy a homemade breakfast with your family, put on your flawlessly ironed work clothes and head to the office. And only after you have joyfully greeted your colleagues and prepared a hot cup of coffee do you check your emails and get on with your daily tasks.
Of course, not all workplace trends are subjects of controversy. It is hard to think there are people who would oppose a shift in closing the gender pay gap or promoting a better work-life balance. However, this is definitely not the case for Automation and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
