Visibility
What does an evolved remote work culture have to do with a new career progression landscape?
A big reason, and one that I keep circling back to as I dig into this question, is visibility - in particular, how important visibility is in finding new employment, landing promotions, and joining leadership teams.
- “If I can’t get a clear picture of the job candidate as an employee within their current organization, how am I going to visualize what it would be like to have them work for my company?”
- “He’s a great employee and a reliable member of the team. But I don’t see how I can justify giving him a raise at this time.”
- “I just don’t see you as having the executive presence we need.”
Take our reliance on visibility and add a new remote work culture to the mix. Now, we see comments that look like this:
- “How do I know my employee is working?”
- “How do I know my colleagues are doing the right things at the right times so that I can get my work done?”
- “How do I collaborate with the team if we aren't all in the same room?”
What is your experience on the role visibility plays within your team?
