If a workman wants to be good, he must first sharpen his weapon. To find a suitable office solution to survive the extraordinary period, enterprises must first understand the current remote office mode and method.
In order to prevent and control the epidemic, many companies have started the remote office mode these days. According to the data from Ali’s online office platform, on the first day of the resumption of work on February 3, there were tens of millions of companies and nearly 200 million people working remotely from home. Although the remote office can meet the isolation requirements, whether the home office can guarantee efficiency, whether there is poor communication in remote communication, and how video conferences are carried out are all difficult challenges for managers and employees.
The “life test” of enterprises under the epidemic
In the context of strict national epidemic control and prolonged holidays, most people ca n’t keep their doors closed, which has a major impact on the catering, tourism, film, transportation, hotel, and retail industries. Not only small and medium-sized enterprises, many well-known chain companies are also under considerable pressure.
Starting construction is not conducive to epidemic prevention and control, and it is difficult to start business without starting construction. The epidemic is not only a challenge to social management, but also a test of the company’s existing operating model. In the post-epidemic period, how to properly use new methods and methods to start the company’s operations, while ensuring the safety of employees, while avoiding the impact of business processes and smoothly passing through difficulties, is a proposition that many companies need to think about.
Under this extraordinary period, online office tools that have been serving as auxiliary functions have started to “produce the beam” due to the safety and convenience of remote collaboration, which has become necessary to ensure the normal production and operation of the company tool. However, although remote office has to some extent alleviated the impact caused by business shutdowns, the distance of office has become longer, and the efficiency of office has to be questioned.
If a worker wants to be good, he must first sharpen his weapon. If an enterprise wants to find a suitable office solution to survive the extraordinary period, it must first understand the current mode and method of remote office, which is the aspect that this article will focus on next.
Distance and efficiency, which are both?
After the first day of telecommuting, there was a constant discussion about the state of work at home. Many people have experienced a long vacation, and they feel that they ca n’t work at home. “I swiped my phone without paying attention, and an hour passed.” “In the morning, I sent a message to a colleague. I received a reply in the afternoon.” Group connection discussion, video conference change to pajama party in seconds “…
It can be seen that although the remote office mode can greatly reduce the cost of commuting time and office space,Acceptance, popularity and mode of operation still need to be improved. Looking overseas, statistics from the “Forward-looking Economist” show that as of 2017, more than 80% of companies in the United States have introduced a remote office system, and 30 million people have remote offices at home, accounting for 16% -19% of the working population in the United States.
Simply put, the ease of use and practicality of collaboration tools, communication and management during remote work, team meeting efficiency, and multi-team collaboration linkage are several aspects that enterprise managers are more concerned about. The main reason to dare to easily try to get most of your business online. Fortunately, today’s online office tools are no longer the same as those of five years ago. Collaborative office products have become increasingly mature, and they have refined their functional features and coordinated with each other to help enterprises and even government departments to meet the needs of advanced enterprises Let more offline services realize “cloud interaction” and “second response”.

But sharp weapons also need to be used in the right way to achieve maximum effectiveness. Tools are just auxiliary, management is fundamental. When a suitable remote collaboration tool is selected, enterprise managers want the best benefits of remote office work. “Sense of groundbreaking ceremony”, “effective workflow” and “target management” are three important basic factors. The ritual start can enable employees to quickly switch back to work status; effective work processes can maximize the guarantee of work efficiency; target management is the basis for staying at home and making projects correct.

Enterprise managers can make employees consciously adjust their work status through online group meetings, morning video meetings, emails for all employees, and start-up profit, etc. At the same time, they can set clear goals and disassemble tasks into specific work plans. Let every employee return to the fighting state, but also strengthen the gap with employeesCommunication, real-time grasp of work progress.
As an employee, try to create a sense of work ritual at home. Divide an independent office space, do a good job of time management, maintain a consistent working rhythm with the team, and respond to work information in a timely manner. Video conferences can be conducted when necessary. Multi-team collaboration should also actively report on task progress and better work with the team. Synergy.
It can be seen that today, under the tight coverage of the Internet, distance is no longer the main reason that hinders office efficiency. With the continuous improvement of remote office tools, coupled with the strengthening of business process management and employee work habits by enterprise managers, remote office will become a working mode that is more in line with corporate needs.
Both frontline and support
