\u201cHow can managers ensure the productivity of their teams\u00a0when working from home?\u201d It\u2019s a rather tricky question, and there are definitely no one-size-fits-all answers. This question is all the more important to answer right now because a lot of managers, many having had no prior experience in managing remote teams, have been forced to do so overnight. That said, below are some approaches which are by-and-large known to be effective when adapted properly to the organization\u2019s context. Let\u2019s take a look at what some of these methods are:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Trust your employees<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hire employees, who display a strong work ethic, and who ideally would not need supervision in the first place. Agree mutually upon high level deliverables, challenges and approach to work, preferably not on a daily basis, but on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n\n

This approach works wonders in a highly motivated work environment, where\u00a0every stakeholder has inherent motivation and a strong desire to contribute to and benefit from the organisation\u2019s success. Trust your people to plan their day, put in the required time and complete their tasks. Working from home for a long duration of time makes it difficult at times to completely segregate your personal and professional lives. Timings overlap, responsibilities cross over. It is OK for your people to plan flexible work schedules as long as it doesn\u2019t impact their deliverables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Qandle HRMS<\/a>, we have provided options for the employees to mark their break durations, proactively. This will help the employees to track their productivity themselves. Ideal break duration can be anywhere around 1.5 hour in an 8 hour work environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Managers should set clear expectations with their teammates, in various departments. For example : <\/p>\n\n\n\n
