This Weekās Insight š©š»āš»
This week, Iāve been reflecting one of the biggest mistake I made early in building remote team culture: I focused too much on tasks and not enough on social connection.
I used to believe that productivity was all about getting through my work, but I completely overlooked the importance of fostering social connections. As a result, engagement and morale dipped. Over the years, I learned that strong team culture is about more than just workāitās about people.
Hereās what I learned:
Itās important to schedule regular virtual social eventsānot just work meetings.
Celebrate team milestones and wins to keep everyone motivated + involved.
Make time for personal check-ins to maintain + grow connections in the team.
Remote work is about balancing productivity with human connection, and when you get it right, your team will thrive.
