What are the 7 Ways to Stand Out When You’re Working Remotely

 


7 Ways to Stand Out When You’re Working Remotely

It can be easy to fade into the background when most of the staff has returned to the workplace and you're working remotely. Here are some tactics to help you stand out.

1. Pump the Brakes

Working from home can entail mental health challenges that aren’t connected to your job performance. Being alone in your home, toiling away without the distractions of coworker banter, office politics, and job friendships, makes you feel isolated and disconnected

2. Make an Effort to Be Seen and Heard

So you’ve thought about it and decided that while there’s good news (you aren’t beating yourself up over nothing) the bad news is that the problem’s real and you’re getting overlooked at work

3. Advocate For Yourself

If you’re worried about your career stalling while working in a hybrid workplace, you need to start championing your own cause — and working to get people to champion it alongside you

4. Schedule Regular Check-ins

The crux of the problem is that when you’re in the office, people are effortlessly reminded of your existence and when you’re not, you have to make an effort to get noticed. So make friends with your calendar app

5. Have One-on-One Meetings

Often, group meetings alone aren’t the right venue for getting attention at the workplace. It’s too easy to fade into the background when you’re one voice among many. Kohut encourages remote employees to reach out to managers and colleagues for one-on-one communications. Individual conversations, where you’re actively shaping up ideas in real time, can be better avenues for connecting with your co-workers and showing the value you bring to the team

6.  Make Sure Your Boss Knows What You’re Doing

If you’re worried that your manager is forgetting your contributions to the organization, remind them. Kohut says one of her recruiting clients would send their boss a daily status report to run down how they spent their workday and what they accomplished

7. Brag About Your Victories

Remote work and modesty don’t mix.
