"Slow Living" is a popular lifestyle that encourages people to relax and take time in every aspect of life. While PMO emphasizes efficiency and getting things done on time, we can still embrace people who like slow living in our business practices.
PMO leaders need to understand the basic concept of slow living, which includes taking your time, being patient, and being present at any moment. Taking your time tells us to start actions until we are sure what we do give us a balance and on-purpose life. Being patient requires us to stop racing to the goals but follow the steps to go through the process. The suggestion emphasizes staying relaxed and avoiding burnout. Be present emphasis on the experience and emerging us fully into the nature to get joy. Slow living people called this an "Intentional Moment."
Slow living is not in conflict with efficiency. Project managers can embrace slow living by scheduling tasks per project plan, giving reasonable time to complete a job, and leaving people alone to let your team feel the freedom to work on their assignments. We can also schedule break times into our project plan to allow a comfortable pace and avoid burnout.
The fundamental principle is respecting team members' beliefs and working or living styles.
