Exactly two years have passed since the word smart working officially entered our daily life. First as an emergency solution, then as an option or choice, for some of us as a breakthrough. And like all habits, sooner or later it is put under the magnifying glass of bon ton. After the first periods, in fact, when the important thing was to get quickly in the conditions of working from home, often forgetting some details such as background, lighting, privacy and look, today smart working has its own rules, a precise dress code, and even some small concession of bien vivre compared to the traditional office. Rule number one: to be smart, smart working must be taken seriously. This means dedicating precise spaces and times to the workplace, whether it is a corner of the living room or a study created on purpose, we must always be organized to limit all that is the perception by the outside of entering our homes ... video call test. Work in a bright and clean corner. Look what's behind you: it will never please an interlocutor who has to talk about business to see the refrigerator with the souvenirs of your travels! Rule number two: dress for success! Of course, no one claims that the look when working from home is identical to that of a large Board of Directors, but there are essential bases, which also help to concentrate. A set of blue shirts for him that also includes the Oxford and the botton down, both normally reserved for informal occasions, will be perfect to work at home. And if the etiquette does not normally allow to show up at work meetings in a shirt sleeve, or without a golf or a jacket, in the case of smart working turns a blind eye.

Rule number three: green light to comfortable shoes, both for him and for her, as long as you don't lose the habit of wearing formal shoes when needed. Give yourself one day a week, at least, to walk the length and breadth of the house in city shoes. It will be a very useful exercise for the return to the office or occasions outside the home. Rule four: not everything can be digital, let's rediscover the charm of pen and paper. Also to train your handwriting and take your fingers off the keyboard, rediscovering the glamorous gestures to put black and white on a good diary with a precious cover. Rule five: coffee break! For many it is the moment of socializing in the office, for others the ideal moment of detachment and recovery. But don’t exaggerate! The cuddle of the moment is a moka for one. Go hunting!
