Remote-working
a necessity due to the isolation required at the moment, has increasingly been
inching towards becoming the norm, rather that the exception and when this is
over, many of us would have realised that it might make sense to work with this
model to meet the future halfway -
save costs, save fuel, protect the environment,
Most Importantly : Have productive employees and deliver results.

Building Trust and Connection at a Distance
Video Conferencing rather than voice calls.
Be presentable throughout the day- have a bath, dress appropriately
Resist multitasking, Focus!
Keep your kids away from the workplace- your sitting area. ( It is perfectly
fine if they walk in suddenly )
Discuss your day with friends over a call.
Have proper food and proper breaks in between.
Did you have your informal chat today?
Join the call before time to take care of IT related issues

Why do virtual
teams fail?
Lack of vision of the employee
Lack of Support to each other
Lack of accountability
Conflict Between Personalities
Power Struggles : Team Members
No clear Identity / Clear on work bifurcation
Not interested in coaching/training
Lack of resources
Lack of Interpersonal skills
Inability to accept the change

Focus Areas
● Technology Compatibility
● Social Interaction During “Work
Time”
● Attitude during “Work from Home”

8.
Managing Workloads and Deliverables
Focus on what your remote workers have accomplished, not on what
you have seen them accomplishing it.
Build trust with your remote workers during your one-on-ones.
Take the first five minutes to get to know them personally, inquire
about non-work issues, and ask them for feedback on how you can
communicate better.
Remote workers can’t just drop in for helpful feedback, so clarify your
performance expectations frequently. ( Being Proactive)
Make your check-ins more interactive. Screen-share slide decks and
spreadsheets so that you both see what’s going on.

9.
Circle of Control / Circle of Influence / Concern
Always Remember : WHAT CAN WE CONTROL AND WHAT CAN’T WE CONTROL will help to become
PROACTIVE from Reactive.
