What the Best Leaders Get Right About Remote Work - Employees who feel appreciated will always do more than what's expected

Working remotely is finally here because of the Coronavirus, and many managers just got uncomfortable. Not only because of the virus, but now they are being forced to lead a remote team.

The biggest hurdle is the mindset shift required to be successful. Working remotely doesn't mean people have to be tied to their desks from 8 AM - 5 PM. In fact, it's an opportunity to align with what employees already want, flexibility.

If you are leading a remote team, your ability to run effective team meetings will make or break you. Not only do they provide a platform for communication and connection, but most importantly, they will keep everyone engaged and accountable if done correctly.

And even if a manager just decides not to let workers work remotely, the situation could be forced upon them at short notice due to a mandatory lockdown. So why not flex your muscles and move ahead of the wave. It's important though to standardise on what tools will be used and to set expectations with the team.
