Changes

At {{CompanyName}} we love to work collaboratively, but that means we need to communicate as effectively as possible.

<ol>

<li>Communicate Asynchronously<br />

If people are working from the same location, it is important that they do not skimp on writing things down.

<li>Recognize that the future is unknown<br />

<li>Have face-to-face meetings online<br />

<li>Daily stand-up meetings are for bonding, blockers and the future<br />

<li>Estimate workload on a need-to-know basis<br />

<li>Bond in real life<br />

Hanging out together in real life is awesome and totally worth it. These are the best days of our lives. Spend time together and make sure to do more than just work. Do a martial arts workshop together, visit the parents of an employee, go to a festival together: have fun.

At {{CompanyName}} we have an IRC channel #thanks for this purpose. It always feels good to give and receive a thanks.
