EDITOR ’ S QUESTION
At Studiospace , we help and encourage our team members to stay in tip-top shape in a number of ways :
• Ultra-flexible working – We ’ ve never really been a 9 – 5 type of business , so our team chooses where , when and how to work . We are globally dispersed and set our own schedules . The London team includes people who come into the office one , two or three days in a week from locations such as Hove , Gloucester and Tunbridge Wells and Hitchen , as well as from London boroughs . Our product team is distributed across five countries including the Netherlands , Hong Kong , India and Australia .
• Active lifestyles – Many of our team love to exercise and stay active during working days . We bike , run , walk and spin together , as well as solo , and we make this a fun part of our routine . We make healthy eating a core pillar of our working days too and always provide plenty of nutritious snacks and drinks in our offices .
• Space to let go – While in the start-up phase , work is pretty intense , but we also recognise the need to let go and de-stress . Our team members have chosen different outlets for this including volunteering , sailing , property renovation and triathlon training . These all take your mind off work for a few hours at a time and enable you to come back stronger .
• Look after one another – We are a tight team and always find time to check and make sure that everyone is OK . Sometimes just a quick conversation or the ability to tell someone in the team that you ’ re having a tough day is enough to get you through it .
