5 quick wins to fix your remote workflows

Most teams wait until they’re in the weeds to fix things.
But the best time to improve your ops is before the pain hits.

Here are 5 ways you can take action in 15 mins or less 👇️ 

1️⃣ Stop relying on Slack for everything

→ Set up async weekly updates in Notion (or your tool of choice)
Bonus: you’ll reduce interruptions + build a searchable trail of team progress.

2️⃣ Add a “How I work” section to every onboarding doc

→ Include timezone, preferred tools, and response speed.
This builds instant clarity and fewer passive-aggressive Slack replies later.
