Key Points
- Out of sight sometimes means out of mind. Perception of communication will be less than you think.
- Interactions over the phone/video feel more formal than they do in person, at least at the start.
- You don’t find out about things virtually as quickly as you do face to face.
- Figure out how to make space for different kinds of styles and personalities. A virtual environment tends to amplify these differences.
- Remember to have expectation setting conversations with family members.
- Some people will call you every day and some people won’t ever reach out proactively. That’s normal — find a pattern that works for each relationship.
