Speaking from experience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone working in the serviced office industry knows and understands the importance of a conducive and respectful environment a business needs to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As serviced offices are becoming a popular choice for businesses, offering flexibility<\/strong>, cost-effectiveness<\/strong>, and a vibrant community<\/strong>, creating a harmonious workplace has also become essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everyone needs to follow some basic etiquette guidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s explore the dos and don’ts of serviced office etiquette that will help create a positive and productive atmosphere for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dos:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you can hear it, others can too<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be mindful of noise levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While collaborative conversations are a vital part of a shared workspace, it’s crucial to maintain a reasonable noise level. In a lecture<\/a>,  Julias Treasure, Chairman of The Sound Agency claimed that office workers are 66% less productive in a noisy environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be respectful of your fellow coworkers by using designated areas for phone calls and keeping your conversations at a moderate volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tidy desk, tidy mind<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep common areas tidy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shared spaces, such as kitchenettes and lounges, are essential for fostering a sense of community. Help maintain a clean and pleasant environment by cleaning up after yourself. A study<\/a> mentioned by the Harvard Business Review<\/a> found that working while surrounded by clutter leads to procrastination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please leave my aura<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Respect personal space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While networking and building relationships are encouraged, it’s essential to respect personal boundaries. Avoid invading someone’s workspace without permission and be mindful of their need for privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’ts:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharing is caring<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t monopolize shared resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a serviced office, resources like meeting rooms and printing facilities are meant to be shared. Avoid monopolizing these resources for extended periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be considerate of others’ needs, and if you’ve finished your meeting or printing, ensure the space is available for the next user.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t be that guy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Try not to distract others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s important to strike a balance between socializing and focusing on work. Excessive noise, loud phone conversations, or playing music without headphones can be distracting to your colleagues. According to research<\/a> by Udemy, 54% of office workers aren\u2019t performing as well as they should due to distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take part<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s always easier to take a rain check, but don\u2019t neglect community building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the fantastic benefits of a serviced office is the sense of community. Take advantage of networking opportunities, attend events, and engage with your coworkers. Neglecting this aspect can lead to a missed chance to expand your professional network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
