Hi there,
Timing is everything.
It can make or break that vacation flight or dinner reservation you’re excited about.
It can also make or break even the simplest process rollouts.
⚡ Supercharge of the Week
Remote Octopus recommends announcing process improvements during times that are mutually beneficial for your team.
Monday at 9 am after a holiday weekend… Not the time to announce a new process.
Friday at 4 pm… Also not the time.
That random day where 40% of your team happens to be OOO… Not the time either.
So what might be the right time?
⏰ Before identifying the day and time to announce a process improvement for your team, pause to consider:
Your team members’ time zones
Any recurring deep work blocks
Company holidays
Team OOO time
Upcoming team or company deadlines
This reflection should take 5 minutes or less. Then identify a date and time that is mutually beneficial to everyone on the team impacted by the process improvement.
5 minutes to cultivate psychological safety, build trust among your team, and increase the success rate of the process you’re rolling out.
