Time for a break

The unprecedented move by the UK Government calling for society to implement social distancing strategies to help slow down the spread of COVID-19 has inevitably resulted in organisations encouraging employees to work from home as part of a business continuity plan.  Naturally, teams are coming together in online coffee breaks. Blendly is leading the way in allowing coffee lovers that are working from home to get access to custom blended freshly roasted coffee.

Stay focused

Collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams gained 12 Million users in the past week thanks to Coronavirus, imagine the stress such a move can cause at having to redesign the way you work and collaborate with colleagues overnight.  Productivity issues may arise as a result of distractions associated with working in all too familiar environment, others less quick to adapt to new  technologies may worry about creating bottlenecks in workflow.

Switch off for a while

As part of a coping strategy, online coffee breaks can help overcome periods of stress and eliminate the feeling of loneliness and isolation, boosting camaraderie between individuals and teams. In Dr Pernille Stroebaek’s paper “Let’s Have a Cup of Coffee! Coffee and Coping Communities at Work”, communities of coping were created through coffee break encounters, though it was noted these were often difficult spaces for newcomers to enter.  For new employees, online coffee breaks can be the game changer, allowing them to build connections with new colleagues.  Online coffee breaks provide a platform for newcomers to learn more about the organisation, people and culture and help build closer working relationships.

Grab that Eureka moment

There’s a lot of anecdotal evidence that suggests social cohesion is fundamental to job satisfaction and performance.  High performing organisations recognise how coffee breaks add value to this.  Casual chats over coffee serve as fountains of human creativity; how many times has someone said they had a Eureka moment over a simple chat and a cup of coffee?  Could your breakthrough come from an online coffee break?
