Distributed teams

Punctuation is important, right? Without it, a string of words won’t necessarily make sense. The same goes for our work. We need punctuation points over the passage of time in order to keep some sense of reference to what we’re working towards.

Getting your team aligned is one of the most important things you can do as a team leader, particularly when your people work remotely.

Remote working puts a magnifying glass on our communication. We’re no longer in the context-rich setting of an office where we pick up a lot through background conversations, non-verbal communication and chance meetings.‍

Are your results with remote working being limited by the tools you're using? It's a factor many organisations are blind to because they've always worked the way they do.

Have you been missing those coffee machine conversations while working remotely? Noticing that the lack of spontaneous communication has an impact on your work and relationships?
