As a leader, are you having trouble adjusting to your team working remotely?

We know that how we do our work is changing and so is the way that we are working as a team.

As a leader, you may be biased against having your team work remotely and this may be causing them and you more stress than it needs to.

Do you find yourself thinking that your team is not as productive as they would be if they were all in one location?

This bias may be from thinking that it is difficult to confirm if an employee is performing adequately – if I can see them, then how do I know what they are doing?

Or, it may be around inconveniences in communication. What if there is a problem, how will I get a hold of them?

Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!

Here are today’s Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating World Productivity Day:

Start by asking yourself a few basic questions.

What do I need to let go of to see this as an opportunity for my team and myself?

Is a lack of trust or the need for control possibly holding me back from fully embracing this opportunity?

And if the answer is yes, how can I build more trust within my team or how can I satisfy my need for control while making the need for working remotely work for everyone?

What are the resources that will make working from home more effective and efficient for my team? It may take a bit of a learning curve, but the time investment in these resources, can dramatically increase productivity.

What guidelines do we need to ensure that we have effective communication, without losing the opportunity for informal collaboration and brainstorming?

Finally, ask yourself if I am creating an environment were my team feels safe in bringing up challenges and voicing an alternate opinion.

If you’ve been reluctant in embracing the opportunities that come from working from home, you may owe it to your team to address these biases.
