Description

UPDATED JULY 2021

Remote working (working from home, telecommuting, teleworking, etc.) brings a number of benefits to both employees and their managers or employers. However, there are some caveats: Are you or your team members facing loneliness, finding it difficult to unplug, feel stressed, have communication problems or getting distractions at home? Are you looking for ways to tackle these challenges and make remote working more effective?

If so, you're not alone. Research has shown that many remote employees & their leaders find it hard to overcome these key challenges. I also faced some of them when I started working remotely. But, through experimentation, interactions, learnings and adaptation, I successfully tackled them and made remote working productive and suited to my personal work life.
