How to run your business from the skies

Did you know that the total area of Australia is 7.692 million square kilometres?

This makes our country the sixth largest in the world, but provides numerous challenges when we need to travel from one side to another. As such, business leaders and senior management figures often have few options than to fly to important conferences, meetings and deals.

According to Roy Morgan Research, 11 per cent of the population took a domestic flight for business purposes in 2014. Of note, 47 per cent of Victorian business air travellers flew from Melbourne to a New South Wales destination – highlighting the important corporate link between the two states.

So, once you have dropped your vehicle off at Pacific Airport Parking, how can you ensure you don't waste any time between destinations? Here are three ways to be productive from the comfort of your airline seat.

1) Get your tab on

While some airlines have WiFi you can buy, it is often slow and expensive. As such, make sure you download and open as much content as possible onto your laptop's tabs before taking off.

This could be sales figures, company reports or any bulk information that can be used offline. With all the data at your fingertips, you can take advantage of the offline ability of Google Docs or Microsoft Office to continue your productivity in the air!

2) Create your work station

There isn't a lot of room for an office from your airline seat. However, if you are smart with what devices you bring onboard, it's possible to get plenty done on even the shortest flight.

3) Think about security

Depending on your industry or sector, the content that you viewing on your laptop could be confidential or private. Of course, with several people able to see your screen, there is always a concern that people could read what you are doing.

It might be good idea to use a screen filter that will block others from seeing information, unless they are directly in front of it.
