Here are 5 tips to keep in mind while you and your team is virtually connected and working from home. 👇
1. #Communicate – Whether it is on chat, emails, phone call or video calls, stay in touch with your team members. Only when you communicate frequently and clearly, you will be able to understand the issues they are facing and you will be able to help them out.
2. #Coach & #Mentor– When things don’t go as expected try and figure out the why and look at opportunities to coach and mentor your team. Coaching always helps!
3. Build #Trust– Make them believe in themselves and in you. Trust their ability and skills. A trusted employee is more productive than a micromanaged one.
4. #Engage– As the team is physically scattered you need to be the catalyst to keep them together. # Bond with them, do some quick exercise and activities to boost their morale frequently.
5. Seek #Feedback– Unless you know, you can’t do anything about it. Since you can’t see the team members, you may not be able to visually understand their state of mind. Send out surveys or get on 1-1s to understand if they have any feedback to share. This will help you build trust, bond and proactively solve issues.
