    Hello all! So far, so so good with our roll out of Officely! We have been happy with the thoughtful ways we can use the software in our office and how responsive the team has been to questions and requests. Thanks for that and happy to be a part of this workspace to be able to hear what others are thinking hybrid and Officely-wise.

    Hi everyone! Iยดm Katya, Senior Office Manager at Exoclick, located in sunny Barcelona. Weยดve been using Officely for over a month and it has been the best decision. Super easy friendly, my team is very happy that is integrated in Slack, not issues at all so far. I made a research with other similar tools but Officely was the winner for so many aspects. Keep up the good work!

    <!here> Hey everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹ I hope you had a great weekend! Just thought Iโ€™d introduce myself to the group. My name is Lucille, I am the new Community Manager for Hybrid Heroes and Officely. Iโ€™d love to get a chance to get to know you all more! So I have a couple of questions for you: Where are you based? And, whatโ€™s the weather like? About me: I am from France and I moved to London 6 years ago, something I dreamed of since I was 12! I used to work as an Office Manager and I was notably in charge of keeping track of office attendance since implementing the hybrid work model. And believe it or not, itโ€™s sunny in London right now! โ˜€๏ธ

    Hey everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹ Howโ€™s your day going? As you may have noticed Iโ€™ve recently joined to help build this community and I wanted to share my vision of what I hope it will become. We want Hybrid Heroes to be the place you come to learn and share tips and tricks about how to make hybrid work, work. Weโ€™ve all been thrown into this huge change in how our companies fundamentally operate. Weโ€™re expected to know how to encourage office attendance, create a vibrant hybrid culture and make everyone feel included, even if they are working from home. In reality, we are all learning how to operate this system as we go. We want to be here to help you connect with other people facing the same challenges and help each other overcome them ๐Ÿš€ As part of this vision, moving forward, we will be introducing: โ€ข Tips and tricks on Hybrid Working โ€ข Local channels for helpful Office Management tips โ€ข Discussions on employee wellbeing and office best practices โ€ข A mentoring program for those who recently started a position in Office Management (please let me know if youโ€™d like to be a mentee or mentor) โ€ข Anonymous questions (privately DM me with all those questions you donโ€™t want to ask publicly and I will post them on your behalf) โ€ข Officely feature demos, to give you an even better Officely experience But ultimately this community is for you, so if you have any other ideas, feel free to let me know ๐Ÿค—

    Hi everyone! Iโ€™m Alice, Officelyโ€™s Content Manager ๐Ÿ™‚ Weโ€™re really excited to be expanding Hybrid Heroes into a recurring blog feature. The goal is to interview current Hybrid Heroes members to help other office managers and Officely admins to understand where, why and how people work best. Obviously, weโ€™ll be highlighting your business too, so this is a great way for us and others to learn more about what you do, how you run your office and how you and your team works best in a hybrid work environment. It would just be a quick 15-20 minute call, and weโ€™d be more than happy to offer you $25 for your time. If youโ€™re interested, please feel free to DM with any questions or simply book into my Calendly!

Hey @Bella, our office is in Toronto but we have ordered about 6 phone booths from Room. They have a showroom in NY so 100%, check them out - https://ca.room.com/
If you go with Room, I would highly recommend spending the extra money and have one of their installers build the booth.

You wonโ€™t be disappointed @Bella!!! Small suggestion - The smallest Room phone booth that weโ€™ve now purchased six times doesnโ€™t come with stools, you have to buy these separately from Room however to me, theyโ€™re a little over priced. I went to Ikea and bought $15 bar stools that has worked perfectly so if youโ€™re looking to save a bit of money, this is just a FYI.
