A Complete Guide for Employers to Support Remote Team

With the increasing cases of Corona Virus, the government has urged the nation to stay at home. All the businesses and companies have been ordered to remain closed and work remotely until the situation gets under control. This critical situation across the world left many employees and managers to operate their business from home to support social distancing for the first time. Although in India working remotely is entirely a new concept, where employers and employees both are not aware of remote work policies and the process of managing remote workers.

In addition, it can be difficult for certain administrators to handle workers. In most cases, employers may feel that they have no control over the remote worker. So here we've discussed insights into how to manage a remote workforce.

According to prolific angel investor and found of AngelList, Naval Ravikant, remote work is the future we all must get ready for! Are you ready to manage your remote employees? If yes, follow these guidelines for better business results-

Schedule Video Meetings

The best way to stay connected to your remote team is to communicate with your employees over video calls. Because communication is the key to success in business. As per the research, it shows more than half of human communication is non-verbal. There are multiple solutions you can adopt which gives inexpensive solutions for video chat like Skype, Google, Hangouts, and zoom.

And it has been observed that most professionals take remote work very casually. In fact, for them working remotely means to work whenever they want, miss deadlines and forget about their job role. But if employers connect with the virtual employee regularly or schedule a time for video conferencing it will help them to discuss the completed tasks and aspects of the organization.

As per the Gallup article, employers are liable for leading a team to achieve defined objectives. If you're a manager, you're accountable for at least 70% of the variance in employee engagement. This means your interactions with remote employees determine their engagement level, which influences their performance.

 

Encourage your remote workforce

While working remotely, employers need to listen to employee's anxieties and concerns. As remote work culture is a new concept, it is quite obvious that employees could face struggles in the remote work situation. Moreover, if the managers help employees in their problems and show concerns it will help them to develop trust and overcome the remote work challenges. Thus, employers should regularly encourage the workforce so that the employees feel comfortable and concentrate more on their business.

 

Don't forget to set boundaries with remote workers

There is no denying that the remote team often requires some kind of barrier to balance their work and personal life. There comes a time when teammates work from different zones and any notifications or chat messages could ruin someone's focus. Hence, managers should discuss work schedules with each team member by considering their time and show that you care for their time. This will help you to create a positive relationship with your employees.

 

Get aligned with the mission, Objectives & Role

Ever thought what keeps employees motivated & productive? It is important to help employees in developing their compelling mission, goals, and objective that truly matter to them. This will support them in working longer and staying motivated while working quarantined at home.

A recent study by And Co and Remote Year revealed that fewer than 7% of respondents thought that they needed to have a manager present in order to be productive), it’s important to ensure that they feel like they have enough managerial guidance to prioritize their work.

 

Measure the right metrics to drive performance

To track employee's work performance and productivity, managers can utilize different tools like a flock, here you can analyze performance in terms of goals using metrics relevant to each employees' job. After technology becomes advanced, it has become easy for businesses to track the company's results and employee performance whether you are working remotely or in the office. Furthermore, this modern strategy helps employers to manage the team effectively and efficiently.

 

Avoid Multitasking

Multitasking may sound good for productivity, but that's not possible in every case. During remote work it's not possible to switch between one task and another, it significantly reduces the effectiveness of both tasks. It is, therefore, reduces productivity up to 40% and lowers the quality of your work. Neuroscientists have found that overloading the brain with multiple tasks declines IQ scores to a similar extent to that expected of smoking marijuana or staying up all night.

 

Trust your team

Many employers have questions about how know their employees are working? When you work in a remote environment it is difficult to manage how many tasks have been ended by the employees. But this condition is very much avoidable, the solution is to trust your employee. Make sure you have fostered a culture of trust amongst employees.
