For anyone who is working remotely or managing a remote team for the first time: find a friend or ex-coworker who has done it and thrived. Ask them to be your sounding board - ideally daily given the situation.
Whether it's amazing or terrible depends on execution (and obviously other things), and transitioning in a week makes it even harder. Lean on someone experienced.

- hsod 7y agoIm in the same boat as OP and this advice just seems totally alien to me. i don’t optimize my productivity like this, I’m just a guy that understands how computers work. I think there are a lot of people like me
- troydavis 7y agoMy comment wasn’t about optimizing productivity, just being fairly productive and happy. If you’re unhappy or unproductive working remotely, someone who has thrived can suggest some changes — there’s a a good chance they experienced or witnessed the same thing.
