A fost, zilele trecute, o campanie cu biroul de blogger. Fain, frumos, cu capsatoare, copiatoare şi alte chestii utile bloggerului. Apropo, biroul meu e cu laptop, agende (două, da, una cu întâlnirile şi una cu ideile), telefon, sticla cu apă, ceai sau ness. Uneori şi cu domnul Sony, purtător de coadă şi băgător în seamă.

Dar ce fel de birou au oamenii cu un pic mai multă notorietate, cum ar fi Richard Branson sau Arianna Huffington? În caz că vă ardea curiozitatea, iată-le mai jos.

Richard Branson (CEO of Virgin… de toate!)

When I work I see people. I have never liked locking myself away in a separate office, or spending long periods alone to work out plans. My most regular working place is on Necker Island, where I have a wonderful view of the ocean, and plenty of space to relax and think. We often have all manner of interesting people on the island, who either directly or indirectly contribute to my work.

Branson e in centru, tipul cu tricoul roz turbat! :)

Another crucial part to my workplace is a steady supply of tea.  The scene might not look much like working – you won’t find a suit or tie anywhere, and lots of people are enjoying snacks. Work doesn’t always have to mean timed meetings and official processes. Lots of the best ideas come off the cuff, out of conversations like the one happening in the photo.

There is no real difference between work and play – it’s all living. So your workspace can simply be wherever you are, whatever you are doing.

Arianna Huffington (HuffPost) – şi ea a început tot cu un blog :D

My office has views of Broadway and the HuffPost newsroom. It’s all about transparency. I can see out, and everyone can see in.

Things accumulate. As you can see, I keep some books around. On the window ledge are photos of my daughters, my sister and my mother. On my desk: more books, my computer and two gorgeous hand-carved wooden figurines given to me by our partners in an upcoming venture: HuffPost Japan.

How do I wish it would look? I guess I should say I wish my desk looked clean and organized, but I actually don’t. I aspire to be a person who aspires to have a clean desk!

Mi-au plăcut, de asemenea, poveştile despre locurile lor de muncă spuse de Jeff Weiner, CEO de la LinkedIn, care se declară un fan al întâlnirilor “din mers” – un concept pe care îl argumentează foarte convingător!, şi de Michael Fertik, CEO la reputation.com, care preferă standing desk pentru că – a probat! – aşa pare mai deschis la discuţii cu colegii şi mai predispus la mişcare.

Găsiţi, însă, multe alte poveşti despre locurile în care lucrează mulţi alţi faimoşi din ăştia aici.
