Working in an open planned office has its creative hazards…..if you need quiet thinking time it is almost impossible to obtain.
But what about the use of different coloured lights above your desk. Green would indicate “happy to chat and be disturbed”, however red would mean “leave me alone, I’m working on my creative genius qualities”.
And if the light is not on….well as the saying goes, “nobody is home” (meaning I’m out of the office).

It is said, “never judge a book by its cover”, well the same could also be said in business. All of us at one stage or another have been impressed with how a person looks and have made certain assumptions as to their managerial ability based on these observations.
In a teleconferences, here is a golden opportunity to change the way people think. Instead of a real video link of the person you are talking to, what about an Avatar that would be used to “represent them”? The Avatar would be matched to our managerial perceptions, which of course could be totally false. But if it works…..?? A thought to ponder!
