We need to stay socially connected and only physically distant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A rhythm of daily meetings, check-ins and weekly fun team connects; lay the ground to ensure there is open, transparent and clear two-way communication channels between managers and team members. Trust and transparency are the result of a well-connected ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading  has-gradient-fill has-gradient-fill-orange\"><strong>Culture of Care: Different strokes for different folks\u2019<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a people manager, one knows that no two team members are ever the same. Coming up with your plan of engaging and recognising each associate in the way they would prefer is essential. While it\u2019s simple to say, some ways to do this is to keep some time aside to have non-work related conversations like checking in on how they are feeling on a given day and enquiring if their home ecosystem is challenging and how may they seek your support. Working from home involves being accepting of one\u2019s personal space while on video calls, being inclusive of virtual working styles and most importantly being flexible and agile to their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading  has-gradient-fill has-gradient-fill-orange\"><strong>Change is constant!<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those of us who are more social by nature and\/or for whom \u2018seeing is believing\u2019; it can be challenging to manage teams virtually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have evolved and will continue to basis out circumstances. That is where having a hold on our own approach towards change and then enabling our teams through it is key. One could also feel overwhelmed with the questions coming from associates on the current situation and when will we regain our \u2018normal\u2019 state. In testing times such as this, it is important to \u2018wear your own oxygen mask\u2019 before helping others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A simple exercise could do the trick both to manage self and others:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Draw out 2 concentric circles, in the inner one list out the things you have direct control over, in the outer one the things that are outside your locus of control. Now focus on the inner circle as best as you can and take your team along since we are in it together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The definite outcome of change is to make one \u2018evolve\u2019, so let\u2019s view this time of virtual working as an opportunity to develop our leadership style, mettle, and grit!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group  layout-columns-10 has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-0b5f5b40 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-base-two-background-color has-background  has-dynamic-border-radius  layout-columns-4 has-global-padding is-content-justification-left is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-645d8aa7 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);background-image:url(&#039;https:\/\/www.biworldwide.com\/en-in\/wp-content\/themes\/__custom--biw-block-theme\/patterns\/images\/image-64.jpg&#039;);background-size:cover;\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking to build engagement and loyalty for your brand?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" href=\"#\" modal-id=\"header-lead-gen\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\" class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button modal-trigger core-button-trigger\">Let&#8217;s talk<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover how to keep virtual teams engaged with three key strategies: building a culture of connectedness, showing genuine care, and embracing change.
