Why?
We are a very result-focused organization that excels in delivering great results. To make this possible, we expect our people to step up and take ownership instead of waiting for instructions for obvious action.
While being remote, it becomes almost impossible to monitor or direct every action and move. Hence we expect our people to take charge and drive things independently.
What does it mean?
If you see the way, take charge! Own the outcome.
To be result-focused and take complete ownership of what you do is a way to go in a remote work setup!
While taking charge, never try to bulldoze your authority on someone.
Micromanaging = Killing the flexibility that remote work offers
