Remote Work

Many leaders now have a new challenge, managing employees in remote work. Managers who used control or micro-management now have to completely change the way they manage. It is a great opportunity for them to improve their management skills and become true leaders.

What is Remote Work?

Telecommuting or remote work occurs when people do at least part of their regular work from home, rather than going to the office or working in a different location. Details such as working hours and how communications between the telecommuter/remote worker, co-workers and clients need to be described.

As such, leaders need to develop strategic and productive leadership. This requires that the manager knows how to manage from a distance and use online tools for interaction between employees.

What is the Importance of Remote Work?

To keep up with the ever-changing world, leaders need to prepare to deal with all scenarios and possibilities, being attentive to all innovations and uncertainties that may arise in order to react at the moment and thus ensure success and productivity.

At present, about half of modern companies use virtual teams to increase productivity, reduce costs, and leverage global talent. However, this new way of working increases the lack of trust and disorganization within the team, resulting from inefficiencies in communication and social isolation. It also diminishes the sense of commitment, as they do not feel the other team members as teammates.

In addition, with digitization, managers have to be more customer-centric, visionary, adaptive and agile, commercial, data-driven, open, curious and innovative. These are many skills to develop.

Best practices for managing remote work

Recognize different needs
- Not all situations are the same. It is important to take an individual approach to the employee's needs. What works for one person may not work for another.
Have open conversations:
- Employer-employee communication can build trust and help to avoid confusion and uncertainty. Conversations with the team help manage expectations and encourage a supportive work environment.
Try it:
- Don't stick to rules. Set a fixed period, such as three to six months, to try a flexible deal. That way, you can get a better idea of what will and won't work for the employee and your company, and how this can be adjusted if necessary.

Curiosities about Remote Work

An excellent example of virtual teams can be seen in the movie Apollo 13, in which astronauts work with the team on Earth through virtual communication to solve the problems that arise.
According to the IBM Center for The Business of Government, there are 4 essential qualities in leaders who lead in times of uncertainty:
- Grounded in reality — when faced with the realities of the world, the leader needs to have an approach grounded in experiences, values, and beliefs in order to survive the winds of change, developing mental clarity about what they can actually do.
- Conscious - leadership starts with oneself. Only when you truly know yourself and manage your own situations can you manage others.
- Show Gratitude - showing gratitude is the easiest and fastest way to increase performance and transform the organization. In times of uncertainty, showing gratitude to those who work to fulfill a leader's vision is one of the most significant steps to success.
- Consistent in what they do - failure is usually connected to inconsistency. By creating goals without providing resources to enforce them, or by promoting principles such as quality, but only concerned with profit. A consistent leader maintains focus and maintains an alignment between the purpose, decisions and their intentions, thus leading the organization to success.
