“It is important to keep structure and routines”

Petra Schmid is currently working from home, where she is planning a new study on how feedback affects the motivation and focus of people working remotely. As an Assistant Professor of Organisational Behaviour with a background in psychology, she recommends a strict routine: getting up at the same time every day, getting dressed, taking breaks and making a to-do list every day to stay focused and efficient. In addition, she adds: “You should basically stop working in the evening, and make a new list of tasks you want to accomplish the next day.”
