Episode notes
Recreate Office Signals Remotely
- Virtual teams lose passive observational cues so leaders must create intentional pulses to monitor performance.
- Use mandatory cameras, pre-meeting chit-chat windows, and measurable KPIs to recreate in-office signals.
Measure Outputs, Don’t Assume
- Inspect measurable outputs instead of assuming things are fine because "work gets done."
- Track CRM appointments, completed tasks, and client communications to verify performance.
Training Enables Process Reappraisal
- Training gives permission to reevaluate habitual processes and invite team-driven improvements.
- It reframes change as collaborative discovery rather than top-down enforcement.
