How to transition to remote work in a hurry

When transitioning to remote work abruptly, it's essential to mimic office culture by setting up virtual watercooler conversations and recreating social activities like coffee or lunch breaks. Embracing social time as a core part of work helps build morale and prevents loneliness and isolation. Defaulting to transparency involves clear goals, daily check-ins, and manager-trust relationships. Brainstorming differently using online tools can be just as effective as traditional whiteboarding sessions. Don't expect normalcy, especially when it comes to task relevant maturity, working hours, and employee flexibility. Being flexible and prioritizing tasks is crucial during this uncertain time. By mimicking office culture, embracing social time, defaulting to transparency, brainstorming differently, being flexible, and prioritizing tasks, remote teams can thrive even in the face of sudden transition.
