How to Use the Authentic Connection Strategy to Manage Distributed Team Collaboration in Manufacturing Services
#DistributedTeams #LeanManufacturing #TeamCollaboration #Oprah #RemoteWork #ManufacturingServices #Leadership #VideoCheckIns #DigitalWorkspace #TeamConnection (1/1)

Start by documenting the interfaces between your hardware, firmware, design and product teams. Create a shared data repository everyone can access. Schedule a weekly thirty-minute sync to track dependencies.

Start by scheduling a one-hour video call with your entire team. Ask each person to share why they joined the company and what they hope the product will achieve. Write a one-sentence shared purpose statement that you display at the top of your team's project board.

Good metrics don't just measure your work. They shape how your team thinks about value. Start small, be honest with your data, and let us know what you tried and what actually made a difference.
