1
I share an office with about 80 other people, my team shares a laptop,
2
if we want to take a laptop with us
3
when we're traveling we have one laptop to share between four of us
4
we share a printer we have one printer for 80 people i think
5
and we share a kitchen for making making coffee and using the microwave things like that
6
well we share tools which is a bit of a bugbear at times
7
because some people like to keep certain tools in good condition some people
8
if it's not your tool just sort of borrows get used
9
and forgotten about or left especially in their toolbox sometimes you get to find it
10
if you can't find it in yours you'll find
11
it in someone else's
12
I'm one of the ones who like to keep things where they should be every tool has a home
13
I mean my whole space is shared basically I have a a little, you know, area, desk area, but it's all open space.
14
I mean, even the chief marketing officer, even the chief marketing officer who, you know, runs the marketing department,
15
I run the corporate marketing piece of it.
16
He's, you know, runs the whole department.
17
He's literally right in the corner and open space.
18
And, you know, he hears all of his team and I'm a terrible cube mate because I have a loud voice.
19
So I'm constantly apologizing, but everybody knows everybody's business.
20
I'm not so sure that's such a good thing, but...
21
The advantages are that it's nice to be with people.
22
It's nice to be in a social environment
23
and to have people to speak to and to ask questions
24
and ask for help if you need it I think the disadvantage is that everybody has a different idea of comfort
25
I think everybody likes the temperature to be either hotter or colder than it is
26
some people like sunlight some people hate the sunlight
27
and close the curtains when the sun comes out some people like noise some people can't work
28
if there's any noise at all so i think
29
that makes working difficult sometimes in that environment cost advantages of cost
30
and space if every individuals have their own tools you'd have tools everywhere
31
but it's also respect as well if you can use one area of tools
32
and respect those and make sure they go back then everyone can get along.
33
So the advantages are that literally people do know what you're working on fairly quickly
34
and a lot of quick conversations can happen and decisions can be made because sort of everything's happening together.
35
There's also a lot of creativity
36
that comes out of it in terms of problem solving
37
or coming up with unique you know approaches to something
38
because people are hearing what's going on and they'll
39
and they also make connections for you
40
that maybe you you know haven't been able to make
41
because they're working on something else that has a thread to what it is
42
that you're doing but you're not aware of it
43
so that's the advantage i would say the disadvantage is
44
that it gets it can be extremely distracting i have to either come in early
45
or stay late to do sort of big strategic thinking in
46
terms of just having some quiet time to really think through you know putting together a deck
47
that's what we call that in America a PowerPoint deck
48
or a presentation or something like that you need a little bit of quiet time

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
