I've worked about 8+ years in remote capacity for my last company, so I know the border between home and office is thin. Now when I manage my team, the guidelines are pretty straight results matter!. As far as cameras are concerned, I found most people prefer not to turn them on as personal preference (due to hair, backdrop, or bandwidth issue)

For public praise, I found an easy way to create a feedback loop.

My key takeaway is: Don’t micro-manage resources. Look out if work is getting done, if not, talk to the resource to understand their issues and see how you can help them succeed. Empathy matters !
