A hybrid team is a combination of employees who work in the office and ones who work remotely.
To avoid disrupting the equity on your team, don’t treat remote employees any differently than in-house employees when distributing team roles and important information.
Give all of your hybrid team members equal access to the guidance, equipment, and technology they need to do their job well. This helps each employee feel included and empowered to complete their tasks.
Meet with all of your employees regularly, whether virtually or in the office. This will help you avoid favoring those who are working in the same location as you and keep track of whether any of them are struggling.
As a manager of a hybrid team, you need to be flexible and considerate of each individual’s needs. This helps to make sure no one feels left out or treated unfairly.
Prioritize your employees’ work getting done over how they get it done. While it’s important to know how your employees use their time, you should focus more on whether they get the work done on time and the quality of it.
Decide as a team the best way to communicate with each other and what the expected response times are. Streamlining communication will help you and your team avoid errors that are caused by misunderstandings.
Conduct full-team meetings in ways that allow all employees, both remote and in-office, to participate, like having all employees join a video call. Using an inclusive platform allows your whole team to collaborate and feel involved.
Follow your own guidelines by promoting empathy and inclusion to all team members. If you set the standard for how to treat each other regardless of working location, some of the challenges that come with hybrid working will be resolved.
