Building a strong, cohesive team is a tough ask for any manager. But building a remote team can be even more challenging.
Of course, going that route isn't uncommon. According to Upwork's Future Workforce Report, 73% of companies will have at least some remote employees by the year 2028.
Now there's plenty of upside to be had by setting up a remote team. For one thing, remote teams give you access to a larger talent pool. And when you have employees in different time zones, it can help from a coverage perspective, too. This especially holds true if you're in an industry like IT, where after-hour emergencies are common.
