Working from home is an adjustment that many people have made within a couple of weeks' notice. While there are many benefits to work at home (Hello, comfy couch and sweat pants) there are times you may feel a bit isolated and alone during this time. Are you ready to smile? We thought so. Here are a few tips to keep your morale at bay and connected to your team:
Are you feeling like a bit of a loner without seeing your work team? Arrange a virtual check-in to make sure your team feels supported virtually. Treat this meeting as a time to discuss work tasks, but focus on the wellness of your team, also. Make it a point to find solutions to workplace remote challenges and provide as much moral support as possible.
One of the best workplace benefits is to have a quick coffee-break with your favorite co-worker. Pencil in some time daily to take a break and video-in your co-worker to enjoy a midday caffeine break. Surely, they will appreciate seeing you and it will result in an instant smile for you both!
Utilize the remote work opportunity to teach your staff (or they teach you) a workplace hack for your job or your industry. Assign each person on your team lunch & learn topics to discuss for a remote meeting. It will give your staff a chance to create an educational opportunity during this time being physically apart.
