4 easy ways to bring remote teams together

The rise in remote workers creates a new competitive advantage for companies who are prepared to embrace a global workforce. International payment platforms, enterprise cloud solutions, and corporate diversity initiatives are all enabling the possibilities for businesses to attract and retain international talent. Here are a few key ways to integrate remote, and especially international workers into your workforce.

1. Embrace cultures

Instead of trying to promote a homogenous culture in your workplace, encourage team members to make important aspects of their customs part of the day to day. Music, language, and art are all great subjects to integrate into a team’s identity.

2. Travel together

Traveling once a year to meet with team members goes a long way. Taking the time to budget and plan for team events builds relationships and is conducive for creativity. Although the work can all be done remotely, team building events have always been a productive way to retain employees and build morale.

3. Team Solutions

Allow all team members to contribute to the solutions that you implement. When people have an intellectual investment in what they are doing, they will have a greater desire to see a successful end result.

4. Celebrate together

Last but not least, celebrate milestones and accomplishments together as a team. When a member of team gets a promotion it’s a great opportunity to bring everyone together to share congratulations. When a project is completed share a celebration photo on social media about the team’s success.
