Remote or Hybrid Work Team Strategy

Project details

What we need
  • A 1-2 page written document that summarizes the Organization’s needs and goals for effective remote/hybrid work
  • Best practices and tips for the Organization’s remote staff members, including recommendations on the best virtual collaboration tools, such as Slack, Google apps, Zoom, etc.
  • Recommendations for managing projects with remote/hybrid staff, including how to set up a digital workspace for easy collaboration, and how to establish communication styles and structures that support effective teamwork
Additional details

We currently have remote team members - and may have more in the coming months. Would love to learn some best practices about managing remote team members!

What we have in place
  • We currently have remote teams being integrated, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have managers overseeing integration and struggling a bit, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,776 , allowing us to contemplate the next remote organization we are considering adding with more resources and confidence.

Our organization has brought on two different kind of organizations in the past year with varying success. We would love to have a play book / best practices for managing remote teams. What have we done right, what could we do better, where should we start over - these are all questions we would love to get to the bottom of.
