Here at Monitask we have always been fans of the teleworking model that allows people to work a few days a week or full time through a virtual office. Since the situation regarding Coronavirus changes every moment, and with the extra burdens of education-in-home and care of children, we know that this is easier said than done. Now that working from home is a reality for most of us, we have compiled a series of resources to help you adapt to your new work-from-home schedule.
Millions around the world have had to switch nearly overnight to working remotely. But adopting remote work isn’t easy for every team. Deploying a messaging platform can be difficult for enterprises with high security, compliance, and control requirements.
The end of 2019 was also the beginning of something catastrophic: the COVID-19 pandemic. The global pandemic has been responsible for threatening the economy and triggering debates concerning the second recession of the millennium, and for many organizations, it has also resulted in the immediate shift to remote work.
In recent weeks, the coronavirus pandemic has forced millions of people around the world to suddenly work from home. For many, remote work had been an occasional experience; for others, it was altogether unfamiliar. Now, working from home is the “new normal” for many of us, at least for the short-term. If you are new to remote working, it can feel challenging to adjust as you find a new rhythm for connecting with others and managing the workday.
Last week we held the next session of our webinar series and asked the question, “How can product managers thrive when working remotely?” Craft.io CEO Elad Simon sat down (virtually) with Arif Gursel, CEO of ViBEHEAVY, for a lively and insightful chat that touched on the best ways for remote teams to communicate, avoid potentially detrimental tools, and the role PMs have to play in this transforming world of remote work.
Teams across the world have switched to remote work in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, when you’re used to working in the same office, virtual communication can seem impossible. If you’re in the same boat, here’s some good news: it isn’t. Virtual teams have been collaborating efficiently for decades — and there’s one thing they all have in common. They all use virtual team communication tools.
Ready or not, we’ve entered an age of remote work. But as the physical distance between individuals has grown, so has the need to keep teams and tools connected. To do so, we recommend integrating your favorite business tools to help limit toggle fatigue and maximize visibility into the work happening across your organization. Here are some top integrations that remote teams use daily to keep their work connected, from anywhere, with Asana.
Meetings are ubiquitous across companies of all shapes and sizes, and it takes a conscious effort to ensure they’re actionable and productive, rather than a laundry list of status updates. As teams around the world have transitioned to fully remote-work, many have had to completely rethink their meeting practices, including everything from content to cadence.
As the world recently transitioned to remote work, at Asana, we have been curious about the impact on people navigating the realities of working from home. In a time when clarity, empathy, and human connection are imperative, it’s important to understand how new worldwide macro trends affect people on a personal level. To do so, we conducted a survey to evaluate the behaviors and attitudes of 5,140 full-time employees currently working from home.
