𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗛𝗼𝗺𝗲

Working remotely has changed the way we connect—but it hasn’t taken away the need for connection.

Over the past few months, I’ve learned that building strong professional relationships from a distance requires intentionality. Here are a few things that worked for me:

𝗥𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸-𝗶𝗻𝘀: A short weekly sync helped me stay aligned with my team and also provided a space to share ideas informally.

𝗩𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝘀: Taking time for non-work conversations helped me connect on a personal level and build trust.

𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿-𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 (𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘆): In a remote setup, clear and thoughtful communication builds reliability and reduces confusion.

𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝘀: Whether it’s a successful deployment or a personal milestone, acknowledging each other’s efforts matters more than ever in remote teams.

Relationships don’t grow by accident—whether you’re in an office or on a Zoom call. They grow when we show up, listen, and care.
