I completely agree with this. I have been working remotely for different companies for about a decade. A couple of years back, I had a year-long contract on a remote team and the team leader was a horrible communicator. It got to the point where I had to almost beg him for information. He would leave things out (not sure if it was intentional) and then make snide, passive-aggressive comments. The rest of the team (2 people) were also fairly passive and it was extremely difficult to feel any kind of team cohesion. Daily standups were painful. I finally gave up and quit. Managers as well as non-managers need to be excellent communicators for a remote team to work.
