Managers who are succeeding,
in their own words ...
Give your colleagues a hand organizing their workspace – ship their double monitors, office chairs, or even tables if needed.
We kick off every day with a team meeting — video ON. These help us connect, kickstart our days, and make sure everyone is feeling supported for their day ahead.
As long as employees have fixed targets to achieve, it doesn't matter whether they do that during "normal" working hours or at midnight.
If you show that you have complete faith in them, especially during this time when they probably could get away with doing less work, you'll see that trust paid back tenfold.
We have a biweekly company-wide video call to make sure all employees are up to date and aligned with key company information, while giving everyone a platform to ask questions and share their own wins.
If you want things done the right way, make sure to provide more information than you think is necessary. The moment you ASSUME that someone knows something, you’re in trouble.
Many of our team members have never met in person and they interact/communicate like they have. They have formed true relationships.
I do remote happy hours with my team. I order them all pizza to be delivered at a certain time along with some champagne or wine, and we all get on a video call and eat together virtually.
With no commute, limited team meetings, and reduced office/city distractions, you can get more done with less.
