Many employers and freelancers are reluctant to move from their conventional office to a shared or virtual office for fear of reduced productivity. Yet many Canadians have made the leap, and are far from regretting their decision. Flexible hours, creative atmosphere, practical arrangements… Non-conventional offices have you want.<\/p>\n

Of course, the change in work environment can be distressing for some, which may be reflected in productivity for a few days, but thanks to the following tips, you will quickly get back to your usual pace… and perhaps even become more productive than before!<\/p>\n

1. <\/strong>Stay Physically Active<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

You may not be a physical education teacher or a professional trainer, but keeping fit is good for your job performance regardless of your profession.<\/p>\n

In fact, it is proven that staying fit enable an individual to perform better. Widely used at the athletic level, this notion is quite adaptable in the life pattern of any worker. A healthy physical and mental condition promotes productivity and reduces stress. Hence, it allows the worker to deliver the expected job and respond to the challenges of his company.<\/p>\n

2. <\/strong>Establish a Work Environment Conducive to Productivity<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

The work space is another element that can affect the employee’s productivity. Generally speaking, 4 factors directly influence productivity: noise, ambient temperature, the presence of other employees and the layout of the space. All of these can have a decisive effect on the company’s performance. For instance, a study conducted by the Andrews Air Conditioning brand has proven that a workspace at temperatures below 16\u00b0C or above 33\u00b0C is counterproductive.<\/p>\n

In general, shared office centres such as Nuage B<\/a> have taken these factors into consideration in order to provide their users with a stimulating and productive environment. It’s one less thing to worry about!<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>Focusing on Rigour<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

A flexible schedule is the best thing for a worker… as long as you adhere to it religiously! The challenge of rigour, regularity and efficiency increases as one becomes more independent. To remain in control of your performance, you must find a routine in order to keep up the good work and be profitable.<\/p>\n

For example, if you are a night owl, arrange a work schedule like “11 a.m. to 6 p.m.,\u201d without forgetting to include breaks here and there. It’s also a good idea to download applications that help you stick to your work schedule.<\/p>\n

4. <\/strong>Get Some Fresh Air<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Another important tip is your ability to stop and get some fresh air. A study conducted by the Darden School of Business<\/a> shows that employers should take breaks to reduce fatigue and increase productivity. Far from being unproductive, breaks should be seen as investments in future productivity. They reduce the level of fatigue and allow a better distribution of effort throughout the day.<\/p>\n
