You can now fine because in the morning to go to the gym later in the day and this time "catching up". Naturally, this is your work permit.

These ten tips will help you to anticipate these changes and thus better with The New Work to get started.

These ten tips will help you to anticipate these changes and thus better with The New Work to get started.
1. Analyze and develop your four S's
When you pull the alarm if something fails and you're not in the office? Find yourself in the consultation? Communicate your proactive and intervening on the progress of your work? Be aware of the following qualities and be honest to yourself or you can develop it further:
When you pull the alarm if something fails and you're not in the office? Find yourself in the consultation? Communicate your proactive and intervening on the progress of your work? Be aware of the following qualities and be honest to yourself or you can develop it further:
- Self - are you able to organize their on the way you perform your job?
- Self-reliance - are you able to work independently or problems to ask for help?
- Self-discipline - are you able to work unsupervised?
- Self-development - are you able to independently grow and develop your talent to business goals?
As a manager or director of the organization also play a role for you: Personal growth of your employees does your company growth. Help employees to develop (including the four Z's) and your business grows with them.
2. Agree on outcomes
As mentioned earlier, The New Work offers flexibility. While it requires that you take the responsibility that comes with it here.
It is therefore important to work together to agree on the outcome of the work since you do not have to come to the office to 'show' what you do. But how to make specific agreements about the work? In general terms must be clear framework within which work is done. Think of clear measurable goals you want to achieve, within what time frame and with what resources.
The management within an organization must also send this kind of like to apply. Many organizations struggle with the transition of command & control 'to' give space and trust. This transition is also an essential part of the new work.

3. Set limits and boundaries leave
Technology makes it possible to 'always work'. The effect is that the boundary between private and work less clear. In practice it is difficult to then stop working: after dinner anything send emails, went to look at a document and make adjustments, etc.
You must make this your own border. Otherwise you risk that too much private time to spend working. Decide for yourself what is workable. Also discuss with your partner and colleagues how they experienced in practice this limit.
As a manager or director of the organization you have an additional role, stimulate dialogue about setting limits in order to share experiences and learn from each other.

4. Agree on attendance
If you and colleagues in the office less, it is important to make proper arrangements for access and possible minimal presence.
Think of agreements on:
If you and colleagues in the office less, it is important to make proper arrangements for access and possible minimal presence.
Think of agreements on:
- How many days or hours per week and when working from home
- The minimum occupation of the team in the office
- Out-and in office hours (call forwarding telephone, email, chat, etc).
An example
Suppose your organization has a secretariat that consists of four members. They act on administrative work, answering the phone for the department. With smart technology may well take place from home. It is important that an agreement on presence as the secretariat also has a supporting role in the office.
It may be considered for the secretaries of these agreements, within a given framework, allowing them to formulate. This encourages independence and commitment to honor agreements.
5. Provide a good home office
Go get more work from home? Look carefully at the layout and facilities of the places you want to work at home. You can fine at the dinner table or bench some work.
Keep in mind how these places fit the work you'll perform. Do you work an average of three hours or longer at a particular spot, make sure it is ergonomically designed. You run the risk of eventually to suffer from complaints associated with the wrong seat or posture.

6. Commit yourself to virtual or physical encounter
Technology enables each virtual arrangements. Think of a conference call or web conference where a presentation is discussed. But when you choose the one for virtual contact and when a physical meeting?
To determine when the best physical or virtual contact each other, you should know exactly what requirements of the contact. Determine what encounters you want to do physically and what virtual.
It is also good for any (physical and virtual) meeting to evaluate what the participants as well and experienced. In this way, more effective meetings.

7. Leverage m2 of office
When you come to the office less frequently, it is obvious workstations to share. Arise at that time known as hot desking. You get your own work "lost", it ask for a mental switch. Besides the traditional desktop workstations that creates an excellent collaboration and knowledge sharing support.
The trick to the vacant square meters to best use new workspaces to create tailored to particular activities. For example:

- Consultations
- Concentrated work
- Individual work
- Calls
- Meet
Note: The design of a new or modified office do together. By everyone involved in the design of a flexible device, ensure that the device optimally to the current and future ways of working.
8. Be transparent about availability
When your time and place independently, it is important to clearly indicate where you are and whether you can be reached. The most obvious way around this in the digital agenda and data with your coworkers.
This caused for some people an immediate dilemma: what puts you all in your calendar? Suppose you have a working time during execution of your daughter in school, you share this with you all?
The barrier that people can experience generally has to do with the degree of confidence. It is therefore important for a manager or director to work actively to increase the trust among colleagues.
A simple way is itself a good example. Indeed, if you close your calendar set, you can expect others to open up their agenda?

9. Organize social contacts
Because you have to come to office less, you'll go more with your colleagues agree to see each other. When you come into the office less, you and your colleagues find each other less for an informal chat at the coffee machine.
It is precisely this kind of informal contact points are very important to keep abreast of what an organization has, or what's in a colleague personal lives. It gives a sense be part of an organization. Therefore it is important to draw the necessary attention.
This can be done by more 'social contact' with your colleagues to organize and that can be done by:

This can be done by more 'social contact' with your colleagues to organize and that can be done by:
- A weekly cocktail
- Special Events
- Theme Days
- Onions
- Internal training
Create enough space in these meetings for informal contacts. For example by an afternoon not full schedule of speakers and content business updates, but also a couple of hours of free space. Then everyone has the opportunity to take a walk together to chat.
10. Stay in touch about your work
Do not underestimate the importance of casual and informal contact for your work. If you and colleagues to the office less, it can be challenging to stay connected. How do you ensure that you are aware of each other's work?
If you are from your organization more room to time and location independent working, contact the work in other manner. Thereby aids include:
