The workplace has experienced massive upheavals of late. And the \u2018new normal\u201d looks set to continue. According to a\u00a0<\/span>report published by McKinsey<\/span><\/a>, 63% of businesses plan to continue remote working, either fully or by adopting a hybrid model.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whilst working from home has advantages for some people, for others, it can be a distraction. Consequently, remote workers looking for a change of scenery by working in cafes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, there are arguably more problems in cafes than at home. You\u2019re not guaranteed a seat in a coffee shop and if you connect to the internet there\u2019s no guarantee the connection is stable or secure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Holding a zoom meeting in a cafe can also be distracting for other people. When there is music playing and the drone of conversation in the background, it\u2019s not always easy for people to concentrate or hear what is being said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meeting up with colleagues and team members also throws up the same challenges. For example, it\u2019s common for regional sales teams and operations staff to hold meetings in cafes – only to find they\u2019re too crowded, noisy and messy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Staying focused in a cafe is fine when people are working on their own. It\u2019s easier to turn your attention towards your work and shut out background noise when you\u2019re on your own. But trying to listen to what someone is saying when there are conversations on surrounding tables vying for attention challenges people\u2019s ability to stay focused and connected.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
