Three Office Challenges And How To Tackle Them<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nA lot of people think that working in an
office <\/a> is actually a lot easier than it really is. The truth is that working in close proximity to a lot of people every day can definitely throw up a lot of problems and have some big challenges. Here are a few tips on how to handle three of the biggest challenges you might face in your day to day office life…
\nConflict Between Co-Workers<\/strong>
\nChances are, you probably spend more time with your colleagues than with your friends and family. Spending eight hours a day and forty hours a week sandwiched between people you probably wouldn\u2019t choose to sit with can be draining, boring and exhausting – and it can often lead to sharp words, disagreements and
misunderstandings <\/a>. Although a lot of people meet their best friends at work, other people absolutely do not. If you\u2019re one of the latter, or if you\u2019ve observed other people ruining the atmosphere with their personal issues, it\u2019s time to change that. One way to do that is through better communication. Make sure that you communicate exactly what you mean and that you\u2019re open with your facial expressions and body language. Snarkiness in the workplace does no one any good.
\nAn Office Move<\/strong>

\nMoving house can be incredibly stressful and if you\u2019re in charge of an office move, you\u2019ll find it\u2019s just as tough. It also has completely different challenges – how do you move everyone\u2019s desks and computers and end up with everyone sitting in a configuration that they\u2019ll be happy with and that will be good for the office set up? It definitely isn\u2019t easy. First of all, be careful with the office you choose – you want somewhere bright, full of fresh air and spacious so that people don\u2019t feel hemmed in and so that they don\u2019t get headaches from a lack of light and air. Make sure that the environment around the office is pleasant, including places where people can buy lunch, and so that they can commute easily. Finally, don\u2019t think that you have to do it all yourself – some companies like
My Bekins <\/a> specialise in moving offices and they could help out.
\nA Technology Crash<\/strong>
\n
\"\"<\/a>
\nMore and more companies rely on their online presence and services these days, so if you have technology issues it can be extremely stressful. If that happens to you, it\u2019s time to take a deep breath, count to ten to calm your racing heart, and remind yourself that there\u2019s only so much you can do until you\u2019re back online.
\nYour clients should also be able to connect with you via phone, so make sure you\u2019re available there, and that you have as much information as possible – for example, when you expect to be online again, and whatever issues you\u2019re having. You should also make sure that you have
savings<\/a> so that you can compensate your clients for any lost time without worrying about your financial situation, and that you have tech experts behind you backing everything up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
