Whether your business supports working from home and telecommuting options or you need to be productive during inclement weather that keep employees from getting to the job, here are some tips from the experts for managing a virtual office:
- Have a solid IT Infrastructure. Ensure all employees have laptops or can sign into operational systems from home computers. Consider free file sharing solutions like Dropbox
or others to keep people productive away from the office. - Communicate constantly. Take advantage of Instant Messaging and its ability to save conversations. Keep team members updated on changes to deadlines, statuses and requirements.
- Schedule face time. Whether using a webcam or meeting in a coffee shop, it is important that regular meetings occur between people to keep motivation high and everyone on task.
A virtual office has many advantages. Besides reducing the rent and upkeep of an office, it offers the flexibility that many two-income couples seek to balance their home and work lives to drives loyalty to your company.
Many of today’s printers are network ready and can automatically connect to your network and manage print jobs coming in from multiple computers. But many offices still operate with reliable printers that must be directly connected to the computer to print. If your efficiency is being harmed but you don’t want to replace a perfectly good printer, consider a print server.
