Bit is surrounded by six other raccoons of different colours.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"373\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We have a year of exciting new things to come. As we enter into the month of January, this is a great time to look at new personal and professional goals for the upcoming year. With working from home still a relevant part of our lives this is a great time to look at how we communicate, as well as ways we can freshen it up to increase collaboration and communication within our teams.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s look at some ways we can improve our connection to the people in our teams and our customers.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Daily Stand-ups: While this is something that&#8217;s traditionally done in the developer community, it&#8217;s been something that I&#8217;ve been encouraging and implementing into my IT Pro\/Operational teams as well. These can be done on a daily basis, or maybe 2-3 times a week, depending on where we are with a project.\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">Hold a daily 30 minute meeting in the morning (this might be someone\u2019s afternoon if you\u2019re working across time zones).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">Each person states a) What they worked on yesterday b) What they\u2019re working on today c) Are there any blockers? &#8211; in a round robin style.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">After each person in the team has quickly answered the above, open it up to team discussion or address the blockers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">Weekly team lunches and morale building events: Encourage your team to have coffee or lunch together for 30 \u2013 60 mins. Another idea is to set up a team morale event \u2013 quiz style fun, a team building activity, or an hour to talk about everyone\u2019s technical side projects (i.e. home automation, learning a new tech or language).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">First 15 minutes: Use the first 15 minutes of team meetings to chit-chat about anything, keeping in mind that you\u2019re taking 15 minutes off the planned agenda.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">Join a group channel on Teams or Discord that is for fun only. Maybe call it \u2018watercooler\u2019 or \u2018random\u2019 &#8211; whatever works for your team.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: var(--ff-primary);font-size: revert;color: initial\">Join online tech community channels like <a href=\"https:\/\/aka.ms\/itopstalk-discord\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the ITOps Discord channel<\/a>.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is a great time to not only re-connect to those around us, but also get further involved into the tech community.
