Make productivity location-agnostic: How Dell can help make working from home easier and better

When Twitter told its staff that they can work from home "forever" if they wished to, digital innovation experts hailed the announcement as an era-defining moment. And it’s hard not to see why. Hot on the heels of surprisingly successful work from home experiences, Gartner’s recent CFO Survey revealed that 74 per cent of the CFO and Finance leaders plan to shift some employees to permanently work remotely, which clearly suggests a momentum towards expanded work from home policies in the future.

Dell was in the top 10 of Forbes' top 100 Companies for remote working jobs. The company has been a leader in work from home solutions and technologies for years, and has been developing a broad portfolio of products and solutions to help customers enable a remote workforce, and turn unique challenges into business opportunities. They are perfectly positioned to help customers through this difficult transition due to their own history of enabling their own flexible and remote workforce policies.

Dell’s connected workplace is a critical enabler of operational continuity in the modern era of the distributed workforce. It helps improve productivity and the working experience by providing users with secure access to data, apps and services no matter where they are located. Dell has built incredibly strong global relationships throughout their supply chain over the decades. which puts them in a position to be more agile during one of the greatest moments of uncertainty we’ve ever faced.

Tips for working remotely

Given that this is the new normal, here are a few tips for working remotely that will make your experience less stressful and more productive:

Learn your working style. It may be different than it is in the office, but it could make you even more productive.
Have a dedicated workspace. Working in a consistent spot can help you stay focused.
Interact with people face-to-face, even if it’s through video conferencing, so you avoid feeling isolated.
When on a web meeting, avoid other internet activities that can drain your bandwidth, such as downloading large files.
Take breaks. It’s important to clear your mind every once-in-a-while to maintain your productivity levels.
Shut off when you’re finished. Just because you’re working from home, that doesn’t mean your work life should intrude in on your home life.
If your home is your office, security is of the utmost importance. An unsecured WiFi network leaves you vulnerable to hackers that are looking to steal sensitive personal information or work data.
