KORONAKRISEN
Overall, an asynchronous working of the team is
to be enabled, e.g. by check-ins in the morning
(these can also be created manually in Microsoft
teams). For teams that work on different topics
and only interfaces are relevant or where for
whatever reason the daily stand-ups are not possible,
the check-in approach is recommended in
any case. An active exchange on the check-ins
should take place via the comment function. Otherwise
there is no added value. If a person asks
the check-in question manually, no automatisms
have to be established via additional tools. In my
team we had solved this manually in MS teams
in which a colleague set the daily question at the
start of work.
Due to the higher concentration/stringency of
virtual meetings, team members quickly notice
exhaustion due to the high sequence of meetings.
The one or the other coffee fun can then be made
possible virtually.
For me, the more intensive cooperation – intensive
because of the even higher level of structuring
– has confirmed that the team composition
is particularly relevant as already described in
2019. For me, in the intensive virtual cooperation
I noticed a weaker expression of the intercultural
differences. Perhaps this is related to the democratization
described above. Here it would be
interesting to know what your experiences are
about this. Gladly in the comments. Furthermore
I have put up a few hypotheses on which I would
like to hear your opinion:
Your more advanced hypotheses are welcome in
the comments below.
Does Corona bring about long-term changes?
This almost philosophical question was already
intensively discussed in the media months ago
and many authors came to the conclusion that
the corona pandemic will change many things
positively in the long term. More regionality, less
travel, more … I believe realistically, many positive
aspects will be forgotten, despite the long
duration of the restrictive measures.
Even when the volcano Eyjafjallajökull erupted in
Iceland, many had predicted that air traffic would
be reduced in the long term. Immediately after
the volcanic ash had blown away, air traffic was
back at a very similar level.
