Team engagement in a virtual workplace: It is hard but doable!
What Makes the Highest Performing Teams in the World? Simon Sinek has a powerful tip! Be there for each other!
Being there for each other is especially important as we come out of the pandemic!
“You know a bond is truly deep when you can laugh together, cry together, and be there for each other.”
― Avijeet Das
“A true best friend may get you into trouble, but they will always be there to pull you out of it too.”
― Kaylee Stepkoski
Here are 5 tips that may help you foster team engagement in a virtual workplace!
- Give people the opportunity to speak during a virtual meeting.
- Use filler words like “um” or “you know” to cut into a conversation.
- Ask people “how they are doing”?
- Ask people about what they are excited about outside of work.
- Engage others to have a casual conversation. People do not want to “talk shop” all the time.
