Host virtual meetings while in quarantine, this will help your team stay connected while separated. Keeping the lines of communication open with your team now, may prevent future issues from arising.

Take time to get to know your team better. Call and check in with them, see how their families are doing, and show them you care. Try to learn about their motivators and stressors. The more you understand about your team, the better you can help them when they need a little more encouragement at work.
Find ways to re-connect with your team in ways that they will love. A well-engaged team will result in greater efficiency, customer service, and team culture for your business!
