Tips for working remotely

The way we work is transforming, but it’s an opportunity for us to transform together.

As COVID-19 has become a growing concern, companies all over the world have asked employees to work remotely to help moderate the spread of the disease.

At no other time have employees worked from home on such a wide scale. This can be challenging for those who are used to working in an office.

In light of that, here is a rundown of few tips below that can assist you to stay associated and effective at work.

Communicate

The key to being successful in any job is communication, yet with regards to remote work, it is an increasingly significant resource. Since you’re no longer just a few steps away from your colleagues or manager, you must check their availability and schedule 1:1 meetings with them every day to review your objectives, upcoming activities, and daily tasks.

Make a point to advocate for yourself and communicate your achievements during the previous day/week, as well as the goals you’ve reached and the tasks you’ve completed. At the point when you’re not in the workplace, it very well may be hard for your colleagues or your Manager to keep your work top-of-mind, so don’t be reluctant to communicate your significant achievements.

Bandwidth

Another issue is internet bandwidth in your home, which may be insufficient for typical business activities such as videoconferencing. It’s very common right now for conference calls, and especially videoconferences, to stall or disconnect due to insufficient bandwidth. So you need to utilize online video conferencing, which requires a decent Internet connection.

If your bandwidth capacity is low and you’re on a video call, try closing down different programs to relieve the burden on your connection. If your internet connection is really very low, you can regularly stop the video segment of a call and take part with audio-only, which breaks down the point of seeing your team however in such case it permits you to take an interest in the discussion.

Have the right tools

You may need to change or add to your current office gear to suit the special conditions of your remote workplace. Here is a rundown of some equipments recommended by us:

Ensure you have dependable online tools/ software to assist you with associating and teaming up with your colleagues. GeekTek highly recommends utilizing a few tools like Slack for instant messaging, Google Shared Drive for file sharing, and Zoom for video conferencing.

Now that you’re working remotely, life will look somewhat changed (and somewhat more amazing). In any case, if you follow the tips that we’ve recorded over, the progress from the opportunity of an adaptable work style will be smooth and effective.
