\u200bMany of us have had to get used to new ways of working in the last year. Remote working had been on the rise prior to Covid-19, but was rapidly rolled out en-mass by many businesses continuing to operate during the pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve previously written articles with tips for home working, but what about managing a team remotely?<\/p>\n

Being a manager brings with it a unique set of challenges, and these may well be amplified by working in separate locations.<\/p>\n

So, if you\u2019re looking for additional tips for managing people remotely, here\u2019s 8 to get you started!<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.0.6″ collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.0.6″][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=” Ensure your own workspace is set up ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”55px|0px|55px|0px|true|false” use_custom_width=”on” collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Ensure your own workspace is set up ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

1. Ensure your own workspace is set up<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

First and foremost, make sure you are comfortable in your own home working space. Yes, we\u2019re focussing on your team here, but if you\u2019re not comfortable yourself, you won\u2019t be in the right mindset to effectively manage them. Make your work space a separate part of your home as much as possible to promote a shift in your mindset from home to work and back again at the end of the day.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Ensure your team has everything they need ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”||60px||false|false” collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle:Ensure your team has everything they need ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

2. Ensure your team has everything they need<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

Homeworking is new to many. Making sure your team is equipped with everything they need to be effective should be absolutely front of mind.<\/p>\n

Check they have everything they need to be as productive and effective as possible, and keep checking in. It may be that their needs change, or that the team get new ideas for things that would support positive home working.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Meet, often” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”||60px||false|false” collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle:Meet, often” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

3. Meet, often<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

While the solitude of home working might help with \u201cgetting your head down\u201d and focussing on the task in hand, being together is often great for productivity as the proximity to one another allows you to share things so easily across your team. And that\u2019s before you consider the positive implications of those quick social interactions you have throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Meeting virtually may not be a real substitute, but it\u2019s the best we have for now. Allow time to catch up with your team, both to discuss and share work, but also to catch up on things outside of the nine to five. Work with your team to set a regular pattern of meetings that you all feel is appropriate.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Trust is paramount ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Trust is paramount ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

4. Trust is paramount<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

Trust is paramount in any relationship, and that goes for a working one too. Trust is also a two-way street. You need to trust your team just as much as they need to trust you.<\/p>\n

Offer an open door (well, phoneline) policy and invite your team to feedback to you on how they\u2019re getting on as much as possible. Even if it\u2019s to vent at how hard they\u2019re finding home-schooling their kids. Remaining transparent and open will build that trust and ultimately that will keep employees engaged and productivity high.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”image: team meeting remote” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ collapsed=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.gdg.travel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/remote-team-management2.jpg” title_text=”remote-team-management2″ _builder_version=”4.8.1″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Encourage social interaction” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Encourage social interaction” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

5. Encourage social interaction<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

As per the meeting often point above, missing the daily \u201cwatercooler\u201d chit chat is something that\u2019s easy to take for granted. Going from spending well over half of your waking day, five days a week, with a team to sitting by yourself at home is a big adjustment and people will be missing that social element as much as anything else.<\/p>\n

You could set up after-hours virtual meetings that include a few drinks or a quiz or any other fun, interactive element to allow people to let their hair down.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Accept that it\u2019s not going to be \u201cthe same\u201d” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”||60px||false|false” collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Set boundaries” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

6. Accept that it\u2019s not going to be \u201cthe same\u201d<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

A home working team will bring a different dynamic to work and there\u2019s no escaping that. There\u2019ll be times when things go very well and there\u2019ll likely be new challenges that may feel exasperating.<\/p>\n

Accepting that work will be different will help you contextualise and not get too hung up when things don\u2019t necessarily go exactly as they would have done, had you been working together at the office.<\/p>\n

You may find some of the team excel while others find the shift a little harder to navigate. Keep dialogue open and try to set clear objectives as much as possible to help keep people on track.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”Get the right support ” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”||60px||false|false” collapsed=”on”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Human contact” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

7. Get the right support<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

While you may be focussed on ensuring your team are ok, make sure that you also take the time to check in with peers and your own line manager for support. You\u2019ll be able to share what\u2019s working and what\u2019s not and have an opportunity to get perspective about how things are going across the rest of the business.<\/p>\n

The more positive you\u2019re able to feel in yourself, the more you\u2019ll be able to encourage the same sort of reaction from your team.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ admin_label=”And finally\u2026 give yourself a break!” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ custom_padding=”||60px||false|false” collapsed=”off”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Subtitle: Systems” _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

8. And finally\u2026 give yourself a break!<\/h3>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″]<\/p>\n

Getting used to remote working can be a challenge. Doing so when you\u2019re trying to manage a team that you can\u2019t immediately see can be more so. Be realistic and don\u2019t expect too much of yourself.<\/p>\n

Give yourself a break, listen to the New Year, New Mindset podcast from BTN Europe<\/a><\/strong> and focus on the things you can control.<\/p>\n
