1. CHECKLIST TO HELP YOU
MANAGE YOUR REMOTE TEAM
Set relevant and realistic
goals weekly or even
daily. Make sure your
team shares their daily
progress on key projects
to create a sense of
achievement and focus.
Schedule regular
team meetings and
frequent one-to-ones.
Communication and
transparency is key now
more than ever before.
Practice inclusivity by
ensuring everyone has
a chance to voice their
thoughts and opinions.
Invite feedback from
your team and take their
ideas into consideration
when making decisions.
Be compassionate
towards your team
members’ new realities.
Also, trust your staff
and resist the urge to
micro-manage.
Role model a strong
work-life balance. Give
your team flexibility to
set their own schedules
and promote healthy
habits.
Focus on maintaining
your team culture
remotely. Inject
moments of fun
during the day, and
meet virtually to
celebrate successes.
