Allan of RemoteCompass chats with Abhinav Chugh of Peoplebox, an employee engagement and performance platform for remote teams.

Notes:

• how managing remote/distributed teams is different (vs co-located teams)
• benefits of going remote: no need to dress up, reduce commute times, hire from anywhere in the world
• hiring people for a remote team is significantly different vs hiring someone for an office team
• self-driven people are right for remote
• one-on-one meetings are critical, especially for suddenly remote relationships
• we build relationships by breaking the bread together
• connecting personally is what differentiates teammates from 3rd party  suppliers
• building connections has been deprioritized in remote teams
• it's harder to separate work and life when you work from home
• if there's any reason for employees to go back from remote to the office, it's to separate work from life
• Allan's course on developing boundaries for remote work
• we used to separate work and non-work with physical constraints and older technologies
