What is a digital nomad?

Digital nomad is a term used to refer to professionals who do their job using all the technological resources available and who also have a professional, “adventurous” approach.

Erick Sossa, from Microsoft Office BG Lead Division, explained that this is a new lifestyle that contributes to more productive workers, thanks to productivity tools that allow mobility and to go against the “dictatorship” of a work shift.

According to Sossa, this trend is the result of teleworking, which offers workers the possibility of doing their jobs from home, but in the case of digital nomads, it allows to perform tasks from anywhere.

This provides greater satisfaction and therefore generates more productive workers.

At first, it was thought that young professionals would follow the trend. However, this is available for anyone who is willing to learn and implement technological resources.

Among the advantages, employees can spend more time with their families and waste less time in traffic jams.

Digital nomads’ characteristics:

-They know what they want, they enjoy owning their time and have high standards of productivity in their daily lives.
-they are looking for the best tools to provide a good service.
-They are people that transform information into knowledge and collaboration.
-They have a great ability to adapt and solve problems.
