Let’s talk about smart working, what we need, the pros and cons
Today we hear a lot about Smart work, the volume of Google searches has increased considerably and many have already made us “a little thought” .
The question that many people often ask me is “how do you travel so much during the year? how you can work.” The answer is smart working, a model of work to which I “converted” a while ago, let’s say in unsuspecting times, how little was heard yet and this concept seemed almost a utopia.
Smart Working: What It Really Is
Maybe before more than Smart Working we talk about Telework or even work from home, but I can assure you that at home… I’m very little there.
It is an agile job that can be managed outside the walls of an ordinary office and with greater flexibility regarding, for example, timetables.
Be careful though, don’t think that you work less with it!
The basic concept, which must be understood immediately, is that when it comes to flexibility, we mean a total self-management of rhythms and working hours.
Therefore, there are still deliveries, deadlines andtargets.
Fundamentals of smart working
Smart working is based on a number of features that you need to be sure you otherwise risk not working well or even working at all. Specifically, let’s talk about:
- Self-discipline
- Punctuality
- Flexibility
- Responsibility
- Focus
I summarize these characteristics in a single concept: forte work ethic!
As a result, companies must have confidence, excellent assessment parameters and tools to adapt to this working model.
Let’s see what smart working really needs.
The tools
Fundamental to a job that can be safely managed according to its own schedule and from anywhere in the world are:
- Connecting to the Internet
- Smartphone
- Portable
- Sharing Tools
Pros and cons of Smart Working
from the premise, you will have realized that smart working is absolutely not Macbook, playa and coconut but a full-fledged work and as each work has positives and downsides, let’s see them together:
Positives
- More free time to devote yourself to their own interests, which, you know, stimulates productivity.
- Self-management of time based on rhythms and habits
- Ability to work wherever you want
- Ability to travel
Negatives
- Risk of not being able to separate private life from the work sphere
- Increased Responsibility
- Risk of working too little or more than necessary
