In this episode of After Hours, Carol Schultz and her co-host Rob Swymer focus on the importance of intentional communication and consistent meetings.

Carol brings up an interesting article she came across about a manager implementing three essential weekly meetings after transitioning to a remote workplace. Meanwhile, Rob echoes the importance of intentionality, feedback, and consistency in ensuring a thriving remote work environment. 

Drawing from his own personal experience during the pandemic, Rob highlights the importance of staying connected with teams through regular meetings, even in a virtual environment. The discussion highlights the need to ensure personal connections and welcome feedback from all levels of the organization for continuous improvement and growth. 

Plus, Rob and Carol stress the importance of in-person connections that have been overshadowed by technology and virtual meetings. While they admit technology can be extremely convenient, they caution against over-reliance on virtual interactions. The two co-hosts spotlight the need for balance between virtual convenience and personal face-to-face interactions in order to foster a robust company culture.
