Top 10 Tips for Creating Company Culture in a Virtual World

Remote work is here to stay. Learn how companies and employees can thrive in this new environment

At Impetus Digital, we have 12 years of experience working with and managing a 100% remote team. In fact, I have previously explored this topic as part of our Courageous Conversations series, available on YouTube and as a podcast. Based on that, I have collated my top 10 tips for creating company culture in this virtual world that we live in.

1. Adopt a growth mindset

If COVID-19 has taught us anything, it’s that company leaders need to expand themselves and look at the silver linings; what first seemed like an obstacle might actually be an opportunity to grow and create something even better than what you currently have. The last year has been a very stressful time for company leaders and employees alike, and taking time for self-reflection and internal growth will help you become a better leader to your virtual team.

2. Create new norms, processes, values, and expectations for your remote team

Just like moving to a new house or city, team members need time to familiarize themselves with the new reality of working remotely. Let everyone explore what does and does not work for them. Work together and incorporate their feedback to establish clear and realistic processes and expectations.

3. Determine the team’s new “why” in the virtual world

This encompasses developing clear workflows and easily accessible documentation. If team leaders backtrack and spend some upfront time on developing this framework and foundation for how the team will work together in the new virtual environment, it will pay off greatly in the long-run.
