Regular check-ins: To keep everyone engaged and handle any problems, set up frequent one-on-ones and team meetings.
What are the best practices for setting goals and expectations for remote teams?
1. Clearly state the goals, due dates, and deliverables in your written communication. 2. Set SMART goals, which stand for specified, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound objectives. 3. Offer constructive criticism on a regular basis. Based on performance and developments, modify goals as needed.
