[Editor's Note: as we continue to develop new routines to maintain productivity while working from home, we're continuing with our series of posts that share tips on settling into the virtual office.]

WFH is sometimes used as the acronym for “Work From Home”. Some of you may feel like it is more like “Wow, Freaking Horrible” because you don’t know how you are possibly going to be productive with your spouse, partner, kids, pets, and the everyday hustle and bustle of a household due to quarantine.

The expression, and now world mantra, “we’re in this together” has become a shining beacon of assurance that we will in fact get through this together. A few short weeks ago, as our worlds turned upside downside, both personally and professionally, the team at HighRoad realized that if we were going to get through this and thrive, we were going to need to lean on each other for support and guidance. While not experts in the medical field, we have been virtual since the inception of the company and we decided to tap into our collective experiences to see how we could reach out and help our clients manage this turbulent “new normal”.

Suddenly working from home for more than one day out of the week? Are your office hours blending with your personal hours? Are you finding it difficult to focus in the midst of kiddie chaos? We hear ya.

Luckily, HighRoad was doing "remote" before remote was a thing. For over a decade, HighRoad has been spinning up products, providing consultative  and innovative solutions, and evolving our clients' digital stacks  straight from our home offices. You'd be surprised at the productivity and ingenuity that can happen in PJ bottoms.

That's why we happily bring you our Virtual Pro-Tips Series. For the next few months, we're going to share our virtual practices with you, all coming from different disciplines and perspectives.

[Editor's note: As organizations make the transition to work from home, we're continuing to share our own insights and our experiences in the new virtual workforce reality.]

Well, I wish I had the answer to that Million Dollar Question! I don’t have all the answers, and I suspect it’s different for everyone. But I’m happy to share what I’ve learned being a full-time teleworker, especially now that times have rapidly shifted into a state where so many of us are working from our homes.
