Remote teams lose the quick corridor conversation and gain a flood of messages. Without good habits and tools, people feel they have to stay online all day, and decisions made while someone was asleep are hard to find.
How remote teams set up Tandem App
- Keep discussion in threads and use the Threads page to catch up on what you follow.
- Use scheduled messages so updates arrive during a colleague's working day, not the middle of their night.
- Set a status and do-not-disturb outside working hours, and rely on email summaries of missed notifications.
- Pin decisions in channels and keep written process notes in Docs.
