MBA2296 Q&A Wednesday: How often should I meet with my team?
Remote work isn’t going anywhere, especially for lean startups who want a big talent pool and low overhead. But for new entrepreneurs, it can be hard to know if you’re in touch with the team enough. Also, let’s admit it: most people hate meetings. Including the boss. It’s Q&A Wednesday, and we’ve got a listener with a small remote team who isn’t sure how often to bring the crew together (virtually, of course). As the CEO of a company with employees all over the world, Omar can relate. Talking in real time matters. Spoiler alert: there’s probably no such thing as meeting too often. That doesn’t mean you should waste your team’s time. It means that when in doubt, you should always communicate more, not less. And there’s a way to do it that won’t test your team’s patience, or rob them of autonomy and trust. Hear our approach to remote meeting cadence, and learn how to keep your team on the same page.
