Share This Post

online meetingWhen making workplace resolutions for the upcoming year, it’s easy to get stuck on numbers and trends. After all, progress is achieved by making specific, measurable, assignable, relevant and time-based goals. But work-related resolutions should be able to fit into what you‘re already doing in your role. They should make you a better, more productive employee or leader and person rather than add more pressure and stress to your current workload.

Instead of crunching metrics, let video conferencing help you make and keep your 2020 workplace resolutions that shape your approach to being more efficient at what you already do. 

6. Learn New Things By Trying New Things

Video conferencing is the perfect accompaniment if you want to fine-tune your skills. Online webinars, tutorials, trainings and more are easily accessible with video conferencing technology that’s always updated and new.

5. Pare Down And Get Rid Of Digital Clutter

Technology has made it easier than ever before to access information, but on the flipside, it’s also easier than ever before to now have a surplus of it! Thankfully, video conferencing that comes with smart features like Document Sharing, Screen Sharing and Smart Search make tracking down info and files fast and easy. Get back those precious minutes spent searching for a file on your cluttered desktop, or for a document in an email thread. Plus, with video conferencing that comes with an automated scheduling tool, your digital tasks become even less daunting. Direct access to your Address Book is done for you, so you don’t have to click a finger or waste time updating and purging new and old contacts.

4. Stay Active

We all know that exercise and movement are integral to a healthy functioning mind and body. Having a 15-minute stand up meeting or video conferencing with remote employees while from a treadmill desk are just a few of the many ideas you can use to keep moving. Even just keeping small weights at your desk, taking the stairs instead of the elevator, wearing ankle weights (no one will see the in an online meeting!) or periodically getting up from your desk counts. If taking a meeting from home via video conferencing is an option for you, think about sneaking in an at-home workout during lunch or fitting in a few push ups after every email you answer!

3. Spend Time On High-Priority Items

Team members are able to focus better, procrastinate less, and be in the moment without being on social media or their phones. Experience first hand how much more work gets done with more visual cues and hyper-focus. At your desk, try putting your phone out of arm’s reach or listen to calming, focus-enhancing music to keep you engaged and churning out high-quality work.

1. Squeeze The Most Out Of Every Minute

Those minutes you’re stuck waiting at the doctor’s office, in the airport or riding the bus, can be spent planning your next video conferencing presentation. If you’re stuck in the car commuting, unable to walk or bike, at least try to make the most out of it by listening to an audiobook. Don’t waste these opportune moments playing games when you can be accomplishing bite-sized mundane tasks (filling out work timecards, updating software, purging old images and files, etc.) or starting to think about big upcoming projects. 

Start this decade with a growth mindset and a strong approach to how you work and how work gets done.
