Use web meetings sparingly and rely on tools that keep you connected throughout the day. Make sure important conversations and decisions include remote team members. Get creative with ideas for socialising digitally. Regularly check in with team members and establish outcome-driven performance metrics. Are you new to managing a remote team? I’ve had the chance over the last decade to manage several and to study remote work with some very insightful colleagues from leading tech companies. Based upon those experiences, here are my five best suggestions to get started on the right foot. Understand the Challenge Managing remote work is an inclusion challenge. People are usually quite capable of doing their individual work from anywhere. But the real challenge is helping team members connect, be heard, and feel a sense of purpose and belonging. It’s your job as a manager to help people stay grounded in the bigger picture of what you’re trying to accomplish, and to feel like they are part of [...]]]></description>
