[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Although I love my telework time, my colleagues and are more productive when we're in the office. There's more brainstorming, more collaborating, and overall a more professional feel.

I think what people are missing is that this is very industry specific. Not to mention job specific. I work at a nonprofit. When I'm doing budget spreadsheets or filling out a grant report, being at home is fine. When we are brainstorming how to approach a new funder or working on our analytics, being together is best. It's not one-size-fits-all. [/quote]

Meet at a coffee shop.  I don't get it. It's an office.  Not all meetings have to take place in an office.

formal presentations?  sure - as the technology is readily available

but to brainstorm?  not necessary

Which coffee shop if people live all over the DC area? What if one person needs to dial in? What if you get to the coffee shop and there isn't a table large enough?  Coffee shop might work for a 1:1 but maybe not a larger team meeting. [/quote]
