Remote Work Works, if…
Some keys to successful remote work:
- Crystal clarity on purpose and strategy
- Team agreements for communication, meetings, and more
- Coaching and honest feedback and when things aren’t going as expected
- Using technology for asynchronous collaboration and new methods of communication and connection
- High levels of trust and psychological safety
Trust is the Currency of Flexible Work
Trust and autonomy are essential in a remote, flexible work environment.
- Monitoring and policing people’s time only leads to frustration, lower trust and productivity and disengagement
- Leaders need to assume everyone is doing the best they can
- Trust goes both ways – team members also need to be transparent about their needs and work challenges.
The Future of Work is Human
The more we use technology to communicate, collaborate and connect, the more intentional and human we need to be.
- Leaders must practice listening, empathy and compassion.
- We need to recognize that everyone’s experience is different.
- Ability to read digital body language is a new requirement.
