GET FEEDBACK FROM YOUR REMOTE TEAM

It’s easy to assume that because everyone physically in the room with you “got it” that the remote team had the same experience.

Check in with a couple of your remote team members after each call and rather than just asking if the call was okay, ask for three tips on how you can improve their experience on the next call.

Try to implement these tips and publicly acknowledge those who contributed. Not only will you likely get helpful feedback that makes your calls more effective, but you’ll also clearly indicate that your remote team members are equally valuable and equal participants on the team, whether they are physically present or remote.
