Matte PR’s Heidi Ruggier shares tools for managing during WFH

What are the most important tools you have found for managing during the remote work crisis?

Heidi Ruggier, president & founder of Matte PR offers a few of the tools that have helped her stay organized and on track during this extraordinary period, including collaboration tools like Slack and task management software like Asana.

We caught up with her for our latest in our “Day in the Life” series. Here’s what she had to say about working from home, adapting to the new media landscape and more:

1. How much coffee do you drink during a day?

Ruggier: Coffee is a daily ritual. I brew it myself in my trusty Bialetti. I have three espressos per day. Two in the morning and one in the afternoon at 2:30, which I take with a fresh date.

2. Who is the most important person you talk to every day?

Ruggier: The most important person I speak to every day is my partner, Samira. She is the smartest person I know and truly my consigliere in all things. I want to shout out the Matte PR team here too. They are each brilliant individuals. We keep in touch on Slack throughout the day, so it’s like we’re together, even when we’re not.

3. How much of your day is spent on Zoom calls?
