These days, nearly every surviving business out there has turned to a remote work setup in order to survive the coronavirus pandemic – and as Covid-19 continues to spread across the country, the end to strict physical distancing protocols are nowhere in sight. While working from home does come with its own set of benefits, it also means that adjustments need to be made to maintain productivity. It is often worth the time to consider a few basic strategies that may help you adapt to running business from home.

It is only natural if, like most Americans, you have strayed off your long-term goals as you focused on more pressing concerns brought about by Covid-19. But as the world begins to settle into this pandemic, it is important to begin refocusing on plans for attaining long-term success, this time bringing the new remote work reality into consideration. Some experts believe that things are going to be like this for quite some time, so there is no better time to figure out a concrete path to remote work success than right now. Once you have charted a general direction for your home-based organization, the next challenge is becoming comfortable in the world of video conferencing. Work meetings happen almost purely in virtual space now, which means that the possibility of having awkward and unproductive online conversations is high. Do not allow your meetings to turn into excruciatingly long and useless affairs – optimize the time by keeping team meetings brief and concise, then contacting each member individually to ensure they understood what was needed of them.

Though people assume that working from home means that there is no need to promote a healthy work environment, the opposite is true. In fact, it is more important to establish a culture in a remote work setting, since employees are working in physical isolation and may have difficulty connecting with co-workers because of it. Make use of collaborative apps that allow for team members to personalize their spaces and connect with each other in a casual manner. Remember, it is important to set goals and push for efficiency even during the pandemic, but never lose sight of the humans behind the screen. If possible, schedule snack or gift deliveries to employees and find other innovative ways to brighten up their spirits during these trying times.
