"Watch your accomplishments, not your time." – Jeff Porton, Take Control of Your Productivity

According to a 2019 National Compensation Survey (NCS) from the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, about 9.8 million people work from home. And while that number only represents about 7% of the civilian workforce, this year has seen an unprecedented spike of people working remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This scenario has posed many unforeseen challenges for people in the workforce. Most people were not prepared to work from home daily. For one thing, there might be physical barriers, such as not having a dedicated workspace, or working in a space that is too small or too noisy. Creating a comfortable balance between home and work life can also be challenging, along with trying to stay engaged and collaborative with work colleagues over phone or in online meetings.

In this episode of Remote Space, join us as we speak to Glenn Fleishman, author of the book “Take Control of Working from Home Temporarily.” Glenn talks about some of the challenges that people, who are new to working from home, have experienced. Glenn also shares his advice on ways to be productive, including balancing work and family life, and being both physically comfortable and efficient in our new workspace.
