The reason you work best in those environments, Rocio, is because you are not in the office. You are free to come and go, gossip, yawn and stop working anytime. This removes the shackles of oppressive feeling and liberates your creativity. It may not make any difference though if you have no desk but are, well, at still at work. ;-)

This is a prime example of the new digital age & the virtual workplace. It’s good to see that some companies are realizing the benefits of remote working! A lot are still trying to get their head around the ‘social thing’. These companies need to make the leap quick because ultimately new employees that are digitally native are ushering in a new era of the virtual workplace whether these business are ready or not. We conducted a recent survey into this [http://telligent.com/resources/m/white_papers/1353367.aspx?Redirected=true] and it was astonishing to see that 79% of UK businesses don’t provide social tools in the workplace.

I’d feel like I’m in a coffee shop or library and I work best in these environments. I think this is a great idea.

I’m far less efficient on a laptop than on a computer with a big monitor, traditional keyboard, and mouse. How do employees doing visual work, or extensive typing, function in this environment?

Reblogged this on Happen Better and commented: Increased use of remote work may be changing management styles and the tech tools teams use to communicate, but it’s also changing our physical work-spaces.
