Working in Remote is
Hard
but rewarding
Your peers are not your guardian
Dispelling it and providing tips
If someone understands their work
goals and when it needs to be done
(deadline) and works regularly (status
update) then regardless of
their location they dont warrant a
slacker title regardless of where
they are located
Myths
6
Remote workers
are slackers
You are not supposed to work constantly
Dispelling it and providing tips
Figure out a routine for yourself
based on your deliverable and
deadline.
Talk with you manager and mentor for
expectations and deadline. So that
they dont feel the need to
micromanage.
Communication is the key
Myths
7
It is upto the
remote worker to
prove they are
working
constantly
Company culture can be more than co鍖ee
chats
Dispelling it and providing tips
Though coffee chats can be the
breeding ground for marvellous
ideas. They are not the only one.
Team outing at times and yearly all
hands provide wonderful team
building opportunity
Myths
8
Remote work
makes company
culture su鍖er
Its easy to blend personal and o鍖ce time
Dispelling it and providing tips
Its easy to assume that because
someone is always at home that
they are available to answer a
quick work question at any time.
Its not true.

Make or break your

Tools can help

When to Call and
When to Chat
15
Build a
dedicated
workstation if
that helps you
Working from Bed
never really worked for
me
Google Calendar is lifesaver
use it wisely
Build Trust
 Make your activities visible
 Communicate your actions
 When in doubt, ask (in slack/irc/teams/mattermost etc)
 Dont overcommit

Rewards
And come up with deadly
concoctions for desperate
times
Gives you time
to enjoy
