Establish the management structures of high performing remote teams
Set a weekly team meeting
Schedule a time and watch Crewmojo automate the admin. Each team member is notified, a meeting added to their calendar and a shared agenda created. Prior to the meeting - add talking points, attachments, and receive summarised updates so everyone is completely prepared.
During the meeting - capture notes and allocate action items, centralise the storage of decisions and automatically email minutes on closure.
After the meeting - use the feedback feature to find out if your format could be improved.
Easily handle multiple meeting types with automated threading of attendance, agendas and minutes across each of your meetings.
Schedule your 1-on-1's
Each 1-on-1 is a forward looking conversation, making sure your report has complete clarity on the top 3 outcomes they will be working towards over the coming week.
Unearth any issues with the remote working environment, identify roadblocks that might be hindering progress and check-in on their mental well-being.
The Crewmojo 1-on-1 feature equips managers with questions and activities that ensure a quality, future-focused, coaching style conversation.
