Do check ins and share the emotional connection that is usually enjoyed in a face to face situation. Make time and space in virtual teams for getting to know the whole person and not just the work person.
Thanks Mhairi for sharing your suggestion for working in a virtual team. I agree that getting to know the whole person, and not just the work person, is important and makes such a difference to how you feel towards the team and the work.
1. Ensure you have a clear communication protocol.
2. Educate the teams on the culture cause what is acceptable in one culture may not be in another.
3. Coach Finicky employees to be tolerant.
4. If possible have team building activities with the cross-site teams to nurture team building.
Thanks Sreekanth for sharing your top tips for working in a virtual team. I like the idea of activities across teams to help overall team building!
