the greendesking “is a skill that consists of making someone out, in contact with nature,” underlined Aire commune co-founder Marie-Pier Tessier De L’Étoile. The goal: to reduce stress and improve concentration. He has been convinced of this technique since 2017, the year he created the first space of its kind in Aire commune. The city of Montreal currently has approximately forty.
Human resources management specialist Diane-Gabrielle Tremblay said studies in psychology and in schools confirm the beneficial effects of this type of mental health facility.
” the greendesking is easy to set up. You need shade, seating, access to electricity and good wi-fi. “
Although this method has some advantages, it also causes some headaches, according to Diane-Gabrielle Tremblay, such as the security of some particularly sensitive data.
Marie-Pier Tessier De L’Étoile wanted to point out that outdoor work should be seen as complementary and cannot replace traditional offices.
” This mode offers [simplement] more flexibility and options. “
