Remote work has its advantages—flexibility, low or no overhead costs, and a greater pipeline of applicants from which to hire. And it has its disadvantages—less interaction, managers worried about how to tell if their employees are staying on task and communication challenges. How can companies maximize the advantages and minimize the disadvantages?

While there are plenty of reasons to ‘be there in person’, having a local team also comes with costs and limitations. Sometimes, the right skills are simply not available in the local community. In other cases, a trusted team member moves away, temporarily or permanently, or changes his or her work hours. It is often a lot easier to continue working with the person remotely, than to take on a significant risk of finding a replacement that will be in the team room, in person, during regular hours. With the right approach, it is possible to have a very successful team, that allows for flexibility over time and distance.
In this talk, we will discuss the issues and solutions for managing a long-distance team, the difficulties of management over the long distance, the technologies and the gadgets that are designed to be helpful, but are not always.

Leading Remotely: The Keys to Being a Long-Distance LeaderBizLibrary
The reality of being a leader in the working world today means that all those you lead likely won’t be down the hall or in the next cubicle. Each day technologies allow more people to lead teams far from where they are, or even for people to work from home one or more days a week. While there are opportunities gained, this reality creates tremendous productivity and leadership challenges.
If you lead a team remotely, or expect that you will in the future, this session will help you be more successful in building your team, developing your people, and creating the results needed by your team. Presented by Kevin Eikenberry, a leadership expert who leads a remote team himself, you will leave this engaging and interactive webinar with new skills and the confidence to use them.

How to Make Working From Home More ProductiveSpringworks
Are you wondering how to stay productive when you work from home and surrounded by distractions? Here are 7 practical ways to make working from home more productive.
Making the Shift to a Hybrid Working Model: Are You Ready?Daggerwing Group
The votes are in and inevitably a majority of organizations will be shifting to some version of a hybrid working model in the latter part of 2021 / early 2022. In the rush to dust off office desks and prepare for a more collaborative, yet safe, working space, many leaders might be overlooking some of the crucial factors to make the transition smooth, and provide a productive and inclusive working environment for all employees once you get there. Additionally, leaders will need to think about how to encourage the optimal culture to drive productivity, managers will need to adopt different techniques to manage a distributed workforce, and employees will need to reassess how capable they are in thriving in this new world.

Complete Guide to Remote Work and Remote Project DeliveryTom Blondies
A Collection of Best Practices around Remote Work and Remote Project Delivery from the Who is Who of Remote Working.
There are plenty of great guides for remote work but few consider that quite a lot of work is nowadays done remotely. Be it with the offshore team in India or your colleagues in the US to align sales strategies, financial implications of activities, running your IT.This presentation tries to be a practical guide for your average remote interaction which for a lot of people is not very satisfying.
Virtual team management is the ability to organize and coordinate with effect a group whose members are not in the same location or time zone, and may not even work for the organization. The predictor of success is–as always–clarity of purpose. But, virtual team management requires deeper understanding of people, process, and technology, and recognition that trust is a more limiting factor compared with face-to-face interactions.
Though the tools of modern technology make communicating with your virtual team and customer possible, to successfully manage your project will require you to adapt and rethink previously learned communication, leadership, and customer service techniques as well as employ new techniques designed specifically for working virtually.

Getting everyone on the same page is vital for the success of any agile effort. Systematic, visual representations – maps of the user experience -- help align team towards a common goal. You’re probably already familiar with mapping techniques already out there: journey maps, experience maps, user story mapping and more.
But how do we apply these techniques in remote teams? The shared understanding that visualizations offer seems to get lost when interacting through Slack, Skype and the like. For sure, better tools can help remote collaboration, but ultimately distributed UX design requires a new set of skills.

How to Mitigate the Challenges in Remote Team Management.pdfJay Das
The most effective ways to make remote work a success, businesses should implement project management software like Orangescrum. The software brings 360 degree visibility and clarity to all aspects of remote work management.
In many ways, the Agile Manifesto gives us a road-map and lays a firm foundation for efficient software development.
There are naysayers among those who swear by traditional methods; but these criticisms do not hold water because the
entire agile movement rests on robust methodologies and concepts. So what does this augur for the future? No one can
tell with certainty.
Agility encompasses believing and relying on one's ability to respond to unpredictable events, rather than banking on the
competence to indulge in pre-planning. At the end of the day, the methodologies remind us that even though we create
and work with software, the human element, and the resultant collaboration it enhances, is all too important in the larger
scheme of things.
This blog explores the significance of engaging and retaining remote developers, as they play a crucial role in the success of businesses. We will discuss practical tips and strategies to create a remote-friendly work culture. From effective communication and collaboration to promoting work-life balance and fostering a sense of belonging, this blog will provide valuable insights for organizations seeking to optimize their remote workforce. Let's dive in!

Sales Trends & Challenges in 2016 – 12 Experts Share Their PredictionsMikogo
To assist sales professionals in preparing for the New Year, we’ve leaned upon the expertise of some of today’s most influential and respected sales leaders for their predictions in 2016. In the following slideshare, you’ll hear directly from the CEOs of sales companies, global sales executives, keynote speakers, sales strategists, and best-selling sales authors.
The Annual Cost of U.S. Traffic Congestion – $160 BillionMikogo
It’s accurate to say that nobody likes a traffic jam. Unfortunately, a further fact is that traffic congestion costs us immensely. To give an example, American families spend 19c out of every $1 on transport, which is more than food and healthcare combined. Despite these large costs and a general intolerance for traffic jams, the cost of U.S. traffic congestion is continuing to grow each year suggesting that little is being done to combat it. It seems we have almost come to accept traffic congestion and turn a blind eye to its growing costs.

5. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As a result of the technological prowess of the Internet, you work with team members who reside in different locations.
These distant working relationships bring up challenges in team cohesiveness, communication, and productivity not
normally encountered in a traditional workplace environment. It’s therefore necessary to adapt measures that address
these challenges and keep remote work collaborations fluid.
But the question of “how to do so” may be a driving force here. How, in concrete terms, do you effectively manage a
remote team for best results?
In this white paper, we provide best practices for effective management of a remote team, which can be valuable for
experienced and newer professionals alike.
What to expect in this white paper?

7. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Naturally, the first step is having the right people as team members in the first place. After all, any successful work
team’s made up of individuals who are best-suited for their particular work roles and responsibilities.
In the case of a remote working environment, this reality takes on further definition. Not everyone is up to the task of
working alone. Also, some professionals perform better in a structured, physical workplace over a virtual work
experience, which places a huge premium on independence and responsibility. For best results, it’s imperative to hire
people who are up for this challenge and capable of working independently, but yet in a small team.
Professionals who are looking for a change-of-pace from a corporate environment could represent enterprising, well-
suited candidates. Interviewing professionals who have an established track record in remote employment should be
worth considering, as well.
1. HIRE THE RIGHT PEOPLE
www.mikogo.com 7
8. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
In a virtual work setting, the importance of having clear project goals and objectives cannot be overstated. It’s much
easier for a remote team to achieve what’s expected of it when everyone is on board with what’s needed at a project’s
end.
From the project start, it’s optimal to be sure to articulate these goals and objectives clearly. Sharing these aims in a
context where all remote workers are present is, of course, also necessary. For a remote team, that’s likely to be an
online meeting. After sharing what’s expected, make certain to ask if anyone has any questions or concerns. During an
online meeting, when you cannot always see the faces of your remote workers, it is vital to take time to address each
worker and give him or her a chance to speak and raise questions. It’s important that everyone’s on the same page,
and addressing any confusion or lack of clarity regarding project end-goals from the get-go will reduce opportunities for
misunderstanding or even underperformance.
Bonus Tip: Document questions and answers as you go along
As your remote team moves closer to the project deadline, it’s a good idea to take individual questions that come
up during the process and document them and their appropriate answers. Afterward, share these questions and
answers with all of your remote team members. Doing so will keep everyone informed of what’s going on and cut
back on complications arising from worker confusion.
2. ENSURE YOUR REMOTE WORKERS’ UNDERSTANDING OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES IS
CLEAR
www.mikogo.com 8
9. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
It can’t be emphasized enough—in a remote work setting, frequent communication is paramount! Regular calls and/or
meetings will keep everyone apprised of what’s been accomplished, any project setbacks, any important details related
to individual worker responsibilities and duties, and other relevant information.
In this context, it’s important to be well-prepared for the meeting beforehand. A meeting agenda should be shared
ahead of time so everyone can prepare adequately. Keeping regular meeting minutes are also an asset, as the minutes
can serve as a to-do list for the time between now and the next-scheduled meeting. Minutes can also help keep
meetings efficient. They enable your remote workers to refer back to them at any time and check what was agreed on
for different projects. In turn, that helps you avoid any unnecessary repeating of these points in future meetings and
enables your team members to proceed with their work.
3. SCHEDULE REGULAR CALLS AND MEETINGS
www.mikogo.com 9
10. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Meeting scheduling and timing are also of prime importance. Because time management is already a huge element of
individual remote worker efforts, being on time for the meeting is critical. It is advisable not to postpone scheduled
meetings, either. Aside from its role in virtual workplace efficiency, it’s a measure by which your remote workers can
gauge your respect for their time.
Bonus Tip: Hold regular meetings with an online meeting program
When you host an online meeting, you make it easy for your remote team workers to attend and participate.
Particular online meeting software features, such as the screen sharing feature can pay huge dividends in
showing remote team members important information that needs visual reinforcement or demonstration.

Having communication avenues open on a daily basis is essential, as well. In order
to answer any questions or concerns from your remote team, it’s necessary to be
readily accessible for addressing requests. An instant messaging platform is an
example of where you can quickly address worker concerns or inquiries. Other
methods for daily communication can include telephonic contact or email
communications. If you won’t be available, be sure to let your remote team know.
In your daily communications, encourage your remote team members to be
innovative or forward-thinking. If they have a problem or new idea, they shouldn’t be
afraid to reach out. Be sure to ask them what they are working on, each day. Such
frequent contact may at first seem unnecessary. However, if one or more remote
workers are spending time on the wrong task, then that potentially could be many
hours wasted. If it makes sense, encouraging team members to keep in touch with
each other can be invaluable for additional points of communication, too.
4. KEEP THE COMMUNICATION LINES OPEN
12. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
In a remote team setting, one of the most important elements to be mindful of is accountability. Having standards in
place for accountability, as well as for streamlined team performance, is essential. Of course, these expectations
should be stated upfront, clearly, and where remote team members are aware of what’s required of them. That way,
they know the expectations set for them and are mindful of how things should work.
Expectations for key business protocol can include:
• When to work
• How to apply for and announce holidays
• Performance standards for professional conduct
• Which lines of communication should be open
• When these lines of communication should be open
In short, when your team members are aware of what’s expected of them, they’ll be ready to perform according to
those expectations and to be held accountable for when they don’t.
5. MAKE SURE EXPECTATIONS ARE STRAIGHT
www.mikogo.com 12
13. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Communication and collaboration between you and your remote workers are only as effective as the tools you use. A
truly effective remote work team will have all of the vital remote work tools. These tools can include: email, a file
sharing capacity (e.g. Dropbox), an instant messaging platform, screen sharing software, project management
software, and any tools or resources specific to your industry (e.g., creative software for marketing or advertising
applications).
It is advisable to be sure you and your team remain up-to-date in your communication technologies. Testing them so
they stay at performance standards is ideal, as well. Communication technologies that should be “up-to-speed” include
hardware and software alike. After all, it can be frustrating to do something like a VoIP call with someone who doesn’t
have a microphone on his or her end!
Bonus Tip: It’s best to ensure the screen sharing software you use performs well
Sometimes screen sharing programs don’t function well and close or freeze up without warning. In other
instances, the features they come with may not work as intended, either. To avoid these instances, it’s advisable to
test a screen sharing program before using it in a professional application.
6. BE SURE YOU AND YOUR TEAM USE THE RIGHT REMOTE WORK TOOLS
www.mikogo.com 13
14. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
For best performance results, making sure a remote worker is comfortable in a home office setting is recommended. If
not, consider utilization of shared offices or desks. This can help the worker feel as if he or she is traveling to work
every day, even if he or she doesn’t work directly with those around him or her. It also places them in an active busy
office environment, which can facilitate work and boost motivation for the remote worker.
If a remote worker requires social interaction, there is another solution you can take besides a shared desk or office
environment. It will help reinforce the personal dimension of working in a team setting, which can help the remote
worker overcome feelings of loneliness or even social disconnect. If appropriate, some remote team supervisors have
found spending an hour on the phone with an individual worker to discuss work updates as well as company
developments useful. It could be done once a week or once every two weeks, from a timing standpoint. This approach
can be especially useful for a remote workplace setting for a new startup. Aside from reinforcing the remote worker’s
social side and team identity, it can help in establishing personal rapport between you and him or her.
7. MAKE SURE REMOTE WORKERS ARE COMFORTABLE
www.mikogo.com 14
15. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
www.mikogo.com 15
Do your remote workers have everything they need for performing their job duties?
It’s recommended that you be sure they have access to the tools and resources they
require. Having help available when work issues arise may be necessary as well,
depending on your company’s industry. For remote team members, one of the most
frustrating problems to deal with is a complicated IT problem. If there’s no one
available to help him or her through it, there can be a dramatic impact on worker
morale. Dealing with a difficult customer without adequate support can produce the
same negative effect.
At regular meetings as well as in daily communications, it’s not a bad idea to be
certain your remote workers have the resources they need. Reinforcing they can let
you know of any resource availability-related requests is recommended, too.
8. ADDRESS REQUESTS FOR HELP
16. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Having documentation of processes for completing common tasks and projects is of prime importance. Keeping these
documents fresh, easy-to-understand, and up-to-date can be invaluable in saving man-hours and money in what would
otherwise amount to hours of training. These materials will be of tremendous value to professionals who are new to
your company, or learning the ins-and-outs of a new task.
Process documents can also be a useful center-of-reference for experienced company workers who are dealing with
an esoteric business process or situation. They can also be helpful for general refreshment of critical working skills or
knowledge related to everyday company operations.
9. MAINTAIN UP-TO-DATE PROCESS DOCUMENTS
www.mikogo.com 16
17. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
An important factor for many professionals is for them to feel valued. Aside from the personal reinforcement a positive
team environment gives an individual team member, it’s important to instill a team culture that’s premised upon mutual
respect and trust. For one, the power of expressing gratitude for remote workers’ contributions cannot be overstated.
Keeping your remote workers up-to-date with what’s going on with your company’s core team or other team segments
can help in fostering company identity, as well. By relaying new company developments or exciting highlights from the
week, you can help build a sense of “corporate belonging” among your remote team members. Other measures that
reinforce the personal dimension of your remote workers, such as timely, in-person meetings can help build worker
morale, community, and professional satisfaction as well.
10. PROMOTE A POSITIVE TEAM ENVIRONMENT
www.mikogo.com 17
18. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Bonus Tip: Provide opportunity for workers to submit feedback
Having a feedback system in place where remote workers can, during performance reviews, offer insights into
how the company’s virtual working environment could be enhanced can be invaluable.
10. PROMOTE A POSITIVE TEAM ENVIRONMENT
www.mikogo.com 18
19. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
Having a performance review system in place will help remote workers keep informed of their job performance record
as well as areas in which they are strong or could improve. Monthly or quarterly one-to-one performance reviews are a
recommended format for reviewing worker performance. In this context, reinforce worker accomplishments, if needed.
If improvement is needed in some areas, be sure to convey that any criticism or noting of areas needing improvement
is intended to be constructive feedback for the individual.
Making remote workers aware of their professional strengths and weaknesses can help them in their professional
development. It’s advisable to articulate the company’s commitment to fostering the remote worker’s professional
development, too. Doing so can reinforce a remote worker’s positive company impressions.
11. GIVE FEEDBACK AND PRAISE
www.mikogo.com 19
20. The 12 Practices for Effective Remote Team Management
When hiring new remote workers, be sure that all legal and tax-related issues have been cleared. From an employment
standpoint, a remote worker can be engaged in a variety of capacities: a hire through a contractor or outsourcing
partner; a freelance capacity under a subcontractor agreement; or direct employment by your company itself.
In any case, it should be clear to the remote worker, as well as the company, how he or she is to be compensated and
any taxes and social insurance to be paid for.
Another key area to cover is terms of intellectual property. It is an area that can have varying degrees of magnitude
based on the industry in which the company is engaged. It is advisable to agree and confirm with a remote worker
about how intellectual property is handled. This is of even greater importance should the company be engaged in a
creative field.
12. SHORE UP THE LEGAL STUFF
www.mikogo.com 20
21. CLOSING THOUGHTS
In short, even though you are in different locations, there are ample opportunities to establish quality performance
standards, relationship-building opportunities, and worker support for your remote worker team. Have your project
goals and work environment standards in place, be upfront about what’s expected of your remote team members, and
take time to promote their own contributions as well as their own professional satisfaction and sense of worth. By
fostering an environment of high performance standards, mutual respect and trust, and team cohesiveness, you can be
effective in taking your team’s productivity and efficiency to new heights.
