Cómo hace home office la gente exitosa
Drawing on her 18 years of experience working remotely, plus original interviews with managers, employees, and free agents who've perfected their remote routines, Laura Vanderkam shares strategies for productivity, creativity, and health in the new corner office.
How do you do great work while sitting near the same spot where you watch Netflix? How can you be responsive without losing the focus necessary for getting things done? How can you maintain and grow your network when you spend less time face to face?
The key is to detach yourself from old ways of working and adopt new habits to match your new environment. Long before public health concerns pushed many of us indoors, some of the most successful people fueled their careers with carefully perfected work-from-home routines. Drawing on those profiles and her own insights, productivity expert and mother of five Laura Vanderkam reveals how to turn "being cooped up" into the ultimate career advantage. Her hacks include:
• Manage by task, not time. Going to an office for 8 hours makes you feel like you've done something, even if you haven't. Remote workers should set 3-5 ambitious goals for each day and consider the work day done when these are crossed off.
• Get the rhythm right. A well-planned day features time for focused work, interactive work, and rejuvenating breaks. In place of a commute, a consciously chosen shut down ritual keeps work from continuing all night.
• Nurture connections. Wise remote workers can build broader and more effective networks than people sitting in the same cubicle five days a week.
Whether you're an introvert or an extrovert, a self-starter or someone who prefers detailed directions, you can do your clearest thinking and deepest work at home--and have more energy left over to achieve personal goals or fuel bigger professional ambitions. In fact, soon you might find it hard to imagine working any other way.

I picked up The New Corner Office during an Amazon flash sale after reading a review for it. What a helpful little powerhouse of a book! It’s short, but it gives a lot of good advice for navigating our Zoom-forward, post-epidemic world.
The three points that helped me the most:
1) Make a to-do list, not a wish list. Keep it short and manageable. Divide it into three sections: career, relationships, and self. This helped me see that I was doing a lot of tasks for everyone else, and not nearly enough for myself or for my own joy or replenishment.
2) Say yes to anything that excites you. (Did the universe just give me permission to pursue my real “dream” goals??!!) Skip anything unimportant that doesn’t float your boat. Not only does it drain you, but after a while you forget that it’s unimportant and that you didn’t even want to be doing it in the first place. Don’t waste your precious time.
3) Have one little adventure each day—something to make this day different from other days.
I found other helpful advice in here, too, but this is what spoke to me most. Really just a fantastic resource all around for the new work-from-home environment that a lot of us are in right now.

This would be a good book for someone brand new to working from home but most people reading it got some experience back in 2020. I would have enjoyed this book more if I had more control over my work day. I think this job is better for higher level managers who have more control.

This book would be great for those who are new to working from home and/or those who work from home as part of a team. I've working from home for myself for a few years now, so I didn't get a lot out of this. There were definitely a few tips I will try, such as planning my week on Fridays and working by task, not time. The other things that pertain to me I've already learned the hard way, like the importance of setting up a work space that is comfortable and pleasant.
There is a lot of material in this book for parents who work from home, which is probably useful but doesn't pertain to me. The same with how to manage a team while remote working. There were a few times in the book the author showed her privilege, like recommending the reader hire someone to do housecleaning, meal preparation, and childcare in order to be able to focus more when working at home. A lot of that felt unattainable for me in regard to what I'm trying to accomplish with my small business at home.
Overall, I'd say read this book if working from home is new to you or if you're struggling with it.

There were some good ideas in this book, but I found most of it pretty unrealistic. The author wasn’t just talking about the benefits of working from home, but she also sounded very anti working in the office. The benefits she talked about for working from home were the increased networking ability, because you can use the time to network with people you wouldn’t get to normally, rather than getting stuck talking to the same person who stops by your cube in the office. I don’t know anyone who works from home because they desire to be a better networker. Being around people is obviously a more effective networking strategy. Another point she makes is that when you’re working from home you can turn off Teams and other communication platforms so you can focus, whereas you can’t ignore interruptions in the office. Not a bad idea, but again I don’t think that’s widely practiced, and it wouldn’t work well for extended periods of time since employees being unreachable was an initial concern about WFH flexibility for most employers.

Un libro de contenido actual, ordenado, claro y eficiente para poder tener la disciplina necesaria para trabajar desde casa. Ideal para estos tiempos en los que el trabajo desde casa está tomándose la vida de muchas personas.
De lenguaje simplificado y concreto, con tips aplicables, que llegan a ser evidentes, pero al tiempo tienen que ver con la propia disciplina personal y, por lo mismo, sólo tienen eficacia en la medida en que de verdad se aplican.
Un modo de enfocarse y de subirse al carro que hace rato viene en movimiento y que nadie puede excusarse de no llegar a tiempo.

In March 2020, many of us suddenly started working from home. Most companies and individuals were not prepared for this sudden shift. In Laura Vanderkam’s book, The New Corner Office she shares her considerable experience of working from home with a house full of children. She is known as a time management expert and her advice is practical: stop managing by hours, focus on tasks; schedule tasks based on your energy levels; use odd bits of time for personal well-being and think clearly about the purpose of meetings. Use Friday afternoons to plan the coming week and be realistic about your task list. As we transition to a world of more flexible working practices, The New Corner Office is a useful resource to plan our working from home lives.

Reassuring little Hallmark card of a book for people stuck working by Zoom since COVID.

I listened to this on audio. It was fast, timely and full of the wise advice I expect from Laura VanderKam. Highly recommend for anyone working from home.
September 30, 2020
I like some of Vanderkam's ideas and metaphors. Not much new (although her last chapter did have several useful tips about setting up a home office) if you've read her other stuff, but worth a couple hours.

After a year of remote work i find thoae tactics a bit too basic. However, if you are juat getting started with working remote - go right ahead, it should be valuable read.

Recién terminé este libro. Lo compré con la expectativa de descubrir algo nuevo relacionado con mejorar el trabajo en casa. Desafortunadamente, no sucedió. Este libro es un compendio de cosas que la mayoría ya sabemos:
+ "La libertad repentina de manejar nosotros mismos nuestro tiempo nos puede desorientar."
+ Para aumentar la eficiencia, "organiza tu agenda en base a las tareas o pendientes, no en función a periodos asignados de tiempo."
+ Destina tiempo para planear cada semana por anticipado.
+ Establece de 3 a 5 objetivos para cada día y cúmplelos.
+ "Destina las mañanas para realizar el trabajo que requiere mayor concentración y profundidad."
+ Programa tiempo para atender contratiempos y pequeñas pausas para tomar descansos.
+ Intercala actividades físicas, familiares y sociales a lo largo de tu dia de trabajo en casa.
+ Establece reglas claras con tu equipo con respecto al uso y tiempos para responder emails.
+ Establece horarios fijos para iniciar y terminar cada jornada y cúmplelos.
+ Destina tiempo en tus videoconferencias para platicar de temas que fortalezcan los vinculos sociales y afectivos con tu equipo.
+ Para tener espacio mental para las grandes tareas, necesitas deshacerte de las cosas triviales que ocupan tu tiempo y atencion.
+ Indispensable invertir en todo lo necesario para equipar bien tu lugar de trabajo en casa.
En resumen, trabajar en casa es una habilidad y, como sucede con todas las habilidades, le gente mejora con la práctica.
Si no lo han comprado o leído, deben ahorrárselo.

Pokus o rady, ako pracovať z domu alebo zamestnávať ľudí, čo pracujú z domu. Skôr článok ako knižka. Ak pracujete z domu, urobte si zoznam úloh, čo chcete dnes urobiť, potom si ich odškrtávajte, porozprávajte sa občas s kolegami a kúpte si domov kvalitné perá na písanie. Nevymýšľam si, toto sú naozajstné rady.

Short, sweet, entertaining, and encouraging. Gave me some good ideas for wellbeing while working from home the next 9 months. I probably wouldn’t recommend it to someone who is experienced with the WFH life, but as someone who’s new to it, I thought Laura had some thoughtful insight.
August 16, 2020
I base most of my life off Laura Vanderkam's advice, so this was a nice little reminder of a lot of points at a time a lot of us need it.

Lots of really useful advice. Good to go over

Lots of good advice. Nothing too different from various articles on the web, but it's nice to read on the topic in long form.

Working from home is a skill!
This book came at the right time during the pandemic where everyone goes into remote working mode. During the pandemic time, there are so many articles about work from home, but the new corner office is well written and helpful for someone who needs more motivation in remote working.
The topic itself is not a new thing, but Vanderkam gives a new perspective on how managing our time and working from home, not only for you but also everyone in organisational level with some takehome message like here:
Managing by task, rather time. Image you are working in three different time zone. Personally, it is not ideal for working based on time if your colleagues spread across three continents. Take it slow if you feel overwhelmed with your tasks.
Keep in schedule and the rhythm right. Get your three Most Important Things (MIT) a day before, and create rituals. When I get my coffee and this time means a serious business for me.
WFH for the team. Remote working is new for many people, including organisations - so don't feel hopeless. Practically most people are adapting to this new lifestyle. Again, this is not only about you but also your organisations.
Think ahead time. Always remember your career ambitions. Does not mean because of pandemic you must forget what kind things that make you tick! Make a plan!
Work-life balance is a must. Working from home for a few days is provenly benefited for people to keep productive (and sane!).
Of course, the most important is how to make a difference and impacts on your organisation and society. From whenever you're working.

The valuable, on-topic content here was substantial enough for about two blog posts. Short ones. I'm not saying sections on "You can exercise now!" and "Buy some nice pens!" shouldn't be in there, but... they really don't count. And thinking about it, maybe they shouldn't be in there.
I'm sure there will be a new edition when the pandemic is over. If it were me, I'd rewrite the book almost completely.
I think part of the problem is wanting to address everybody, all these corporate and self employed people, all at once. It's hard to say things that apply to everyone. One of the things I liked a lot about Vanderkam's previous books is how she has so many examples of individual people, and how they did things, drilling down into the struggle, the specifics, the changes. There was some of that here, but not much... not enough to cover a wide range of different situations. The book didn't live up to the standard Vanderkam set with her previous books.

She has some good ideas in this short book, bringing her years of experience working from home to help those who've had to adapt to doing so during the global pandemic. However, she also comes across as very privileged in parts, especially when she suggests buying expensive office furniture for your home office or someone to clean or cook for you. My team and I each read the book and are discussing it to compare notes and see which pieces of advice we each think could work for us.
May 26, 2021
Soy fan de Laura Vanderkam desde “¿Qué hace la gente exitosa antes de desayunar?” Y nuevamente sus tips son muy útiles ante lo abrumador que puede ser tener “el tiempo a nuestra disposición” y también responsabilidad como lo trae el Home Office más emprender. Consejos prácticos y humanos. Muy recomendable.
January 10, 2021
Me gusto, porque me identifico con lo que señala la autora y sus tips los voy a aplicar, justo lo que esperaba del libro, se cubrio.

Short and to the point
This book is full of actionable advice. Chapter 1 for me was the key chapter - focusing on task achievement is an interesting mindshift.

As someone who has been working as an office based manager to now working from home for over a year as a result of Covid, I found this little book full of useful nuggets and helpful tips. And it is great that it is kept short and punchy so that you can easily read this book in one day.
A central principle underpinning the suggestions in this book is to manage by tasks, not by time. That is a very useful principle to reflect more on as there are indeed so many accepted practices that are customary time based. Take the very common practice of scheduling 30 or 60 minute meetings because this is how the Outlook calendars work.
The book is written with permanent remote working in mind, so not just seeing remote working during the Covid pandemic as a temporary phase to bridge. It therefore contains lots of good ideas and suggestions on how to maintain your network and relationships on a long term basis. I personally did not think that every one of these suggestions where necessarily a good use of time (e.g. start your own newsletter), but they are just ideas and not presented as something you would have to do.
Also lots of the suggestions made in the book are not unique to remote working and you will likely already have come across them if you have explored principles of time management before. E.g. figure out whether you are a lark or a night owl and schedule the work needs your brain to be at its best at those times of the day.
One topic that hardly received any attention in the book was time spent on email. That deserved more airtime in my opinion as for some people email management can be a real source of spending time unwisely. And inevitably part of the face-to-face office interaction has now been replaced by email traffic.

At first, it takes time for me to read the first chapter of this book. Especially due to the distractions and feel like I couldn't relax if I read this book. Somehow, this book triggers me to do productive things instead of reading it until the end. I don't know what happened to me today, so I recorded myself for 25 minutes Pomodoro timer to read this book, and guess what? I finished reading them all!!! 😄
This is a small book with 76 pages. Maybe that's why I finished it quickly.
I learned a lot from this book and quotes several parts for me to remind myself. You can see it when you swipe this post. This book is consists of 5 chapters consists of how to manage yourself and your teams, scheduling, and planning, and what are the important actions and items do you need to do and have for facing your well-being when you are in a remote work either due to the coronavirus or not.
I really like Chapter 5 of this book, Optimize Well-Being. This chapter is telling you the little and trivial things that you should care about while you are having a remote work. Have a natural light, good chair, good pens, turn your attention to the ambiance, and more!
”This is how today is different from other says. Such novelty makes life more memorable.”
Just another perk of the new corner office.

It’s a great book! I’m a bit sad I didn’t find this sooner during 2020. However, it’s great to read it post the lockdown. I feel as though it should’ve really had a different approach to it’s content. For example, this book can be useful to people of all ages, however I felt a good slice of the book focused on kids and a type of life that not too many people like myself can relate to. I tried to skip sections that seem to organically say something in the header related to “kids” or something about a family that seemed like the typical “white picket fence” rhetoric, as I do not fall into the category. I am a project manager, so for me it was good to get more tips on how to adjust to working from home as a majority rather than before which was very much a minority. I wish more managers and C-Levels read this book; I do believe a good amount of them are very antiquated about how they approach work especially in the midst of a pandemic still. I’m sure it’s attributed to age as those like me who are millennials would rather not have the burden to go in regularly.

The first opportunity I had to work from home was due to the pandemic (March-June 2020) so I don’t think I got to take full advantage of the situation. If given the opportunity to work remotely again, I feel better prepared having read this book.
There are strategies to use to make working remotely successful. Firstly, working from home includes thinking in terms of tasks and not time. You can still foster close relationships while working at home. One should seek new challenges and adventures. That could include walks, recipes, and other simple joys. Lastly, you should optimize working by making the environment comfortable with appropriate furniture and plants!
