There's a lot of communication lost out on when you're not in the same office and the best way to make up for it is with video calls in your one-on-ones with your remote team.\u00a0 This will ensure no one feels out of the loop, lonely, or disconnected.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\"><strong>Email is not a one-on-one:<\/strong> There are plenty of good things to communicate over email, but the topics of one on ones are better discussed face to face (or face to video) and in real time. This ensures you can dig into the problem and actively find solutions. It's too easy to be misunderstood over email or have the discussion get lost in an overflowing inbox even when it was really important to them.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 5px;\"><strong>Helping with personal issues:<\/strong> Becoming a manager means you're in the people business. We're all human and sometimes things go wrong. There are divorces, deaths of loved ones, sick children, break ups, apartment drama, car troubles, and more. Show a little empathy and understanding when people need some compassion and a little extra help will go a long way to gaining the loyalty and long term commitment of your people.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Are you and your managers <\/b><b><i>wasting<\/i><\/b><b> their 1 on 1s? <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no greater investment to make in your team than having 1 on 1s.
