We’re going to talk a bit today about working remotely. This may be new and unexpected to some of you. To talk about this I invited past guest and occasional co-host, Ken Hui.  Between Ken and I, we have worked together at a few different places in the past and probably have 20+ years working from anywhere. Welcome back Ken! For those that live under a rock and don’t know you, tell everyone a little about yourself and what you’re up to these days.Topic 2 - Let’s start with some basics. What are the first steps to both keep your sanity and be productive? (Making sure your calendar is public, your company has a standard for chat/video/etc, don’t they? You are available during business hours, etc.) Set up a dedicated work space, etc. Don’t use Slack to replace email….Topic 3 - At our last company together, Ken pushed hard for certain work from home inclusion rules, what were they? Video camera on, video camera off? People will always assume the worst.Topic 4 - Weekly report on work to a distributed team: this week, next week, GYR status, upcoming PTO, etc.Topic 5 - Have a start and stop time (that is friendly to your HQ)FEEDBACK?Email: show at thecloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet
