When managing or working within a remote team, it may be difficult to build trusting relationships. Join Steve as he shares his tips and tricks on how you can develop a brilliant relationship with your remote team. Steve discusses how the trusting relationship begins at the hiring process, how to hire people with the same values as you and why regular meetings can help you get to know your team members.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There are key things that you can do when you bring somebody into your company that create a lasting professional and productive relationship. This process needs to start at the hiring stage.
• In your job specification, talk about why your business is different, show that you care about your employees because you want to attract people that are attracted by the values that your company stands for. By doing that, you are going to put off people that aren't on the same page as you.
• Have a short team meeting every morning whereby you review the previous day, any challenges that were faced and what is on today's agenda. That allows everyone to know what each other is up to in the team, gives people the chance to get to know one another and also lets everyone know what each other is working on. This is helpful when sharing knowledge.
• Have a weekly one to one meeting with each of your team members so that you can allow them to share any concerns that they have and can build a relationship. This should be done via video chat so you can build a rapport.
• Knowing the stuff that your employees love doing as well as the stuff they hate doing, can benefit you and them in the long run.
• Have company meetings whereby you go through a structured agenda, allowing people to go through any issues they may face so that each week they know that they can get their problems answered. Talk about KPI’s, goals for the quarter and revisit previous meetings to ensure tasks have been completed.
