Tomorrow I am in the office. Do you want to meet in person?
'Domani' = do-MA-ni. Three syllables; stress the second. 'Incontrare' = in-kon-TRA-reh.
Use this to propose an in-person meeting when you know you will be at the office. In hybrid work, coordinating physical presence for important conversations builds stronger relationships than video calls alone.
Combining a location announcement ('domani sono in ufficio') with an invitation ('ci vuoi incontrare?') is efficient and shows thoughtfulness. 'Di persona' (in person) contrasts with 'da remoto' and underscores the opportunity.
Siamo in ufficio insieme giovedì. Possiamo parlare di persona.
We are both in the office on Thursday. We can talk in person.
Uses shared schedule for a natural in-person meeting
Per questo argomento, preferisco un incontro faccia a faccia.
For this topic, I prefer a face-to-face meeting.
'Faccia a faccia' is the Italian equivalent of 'face to face' — idiomatic and natural
Quando sei prossimamente in sede?
When are you next at the office?
Asks for the colleague's schedule to plan an in-person meeting
Italians are relational by nature and prefer sensitive or complex discussions face to face rather than via video call. In hybrid work arrangements, reserving in-person days for difficult conversations, brainstorming sessions and team cohesion activities is an emerging best practice in Italian companies.
