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.
