In a global market that experiences continuous changes and moves at a frenetic pace, freelancers, SMEs and startups in development (around 2.5 million in Spain) need to carry out their work intelligently, saving time and optimizing their resources. To achieve this, Teamleader proposes a series of habits, both in and out of the office, that help us to be more agile and achieve more goals when we have the daily feeling that we can't get everything done.

The #WorkSmarter movement aims to optimize the day-to-day work of professionals who must achieve smart objectives in record time, focus on growing the business, adapt to digital transformation and boost the talent of their team, among many other tasks and tasks.

The #WorkSmarter Manifesto by Teamleader includes 7 keys plus 1 that will make life, both personal and professional, easier for all types of professionals:

1. Take advantage of 'downtime'. Inside the office, of course, but also outside it there are three key moments that can be used more: the closing time for the day, breakfast and on the way to work.

Whether at the end of the day at the office or at the last minute , we must close and senegal phone number organize ourselves for the next day, mentally review the agenda for the next day, identifying the tasks to be done, differentiating between urgent and priority. Always try to finish the urgent ones so you can focus on the important ones, which are the ones that will bring you the greatest return. At breakfast you can also be generating ideas, organizing yourself or planning your day (checking email, messages or missed calls). Even if you are very short on time, it is an ideal time for quick meetings. Lunchtime is also ideal and you can have meetings with collaborators and potential investors or clients. On public transport on the way to work or home you can read emails, make pending calls or write a post for your personal blog that will help you in your positioning as an expert, among other things.



2. Create procedure manuals. Always try to think big and think about how you can make your business scalable. To avoid explaining the same work process over and over again, as well as to have a standardized response for certain cases and situations, it is highly advisable to create “manuals” with these processes. These documents collect typologies and processes that help standardize and make your business grow.

3. Promote teleworking. In the digital age, it would be absurd not to have the possibility of working remotely, whether in order to collaborate with other companies to which we outsource services, with clients and, above all, for the professionals who make up the work teams. It is about achieving the perfect balance: creating a work system based on objectives rather than on daily hours worked. In this context, it is very important to set an approximate schedule since, otherwise, we could be connected all the time, which does not help motivation and much less efficiency.

Teamleader is a great help here, as it facilitates the management and planning of tasks and resources within projects, allows the workload to be distributed among team members online , gives clients the possibility of seeing where a job is at and contacting the person responsible for the task at that moment.
