Organizational Culture

We all have our own vision of what effective work looks like. Some prefer working solo, some thrive on the road, and many do their best in a team. Most of us are used to the comfort of the right tools, a proper workspace, and an environment where we can focus deeply.

But what happens when those conditions change overnight?
Many of us had to adapt to working from home almost instantly—learning through trial and error. Yet remote work doesn’t mean we have to lose our sense of team. Even if a key element changes, we can still protect what matters most: our connection with colleagues and friends.

One simple but powerful way to do this comes from author and speaker Simon Sinek: the Huddle—a short, 15–20-minute online gathering designed to keep collaboration alive.

Why bonding matters remotely

Humans are social beings. Relationships are the backbone of our communication, our communities, and our work. We stay grounded and motivated when we know we have people to turn to—for support, for ideas, or for a laugh.

Social distancing has put those connections on hold. The solution? Create new routines by adapting the old ones—and make them part of our remote workday.

How to “Huddle”

Sinek’s team has worked virtually for years, using a consistent rhythm to stay connected, encourage each other, and coordinate their work. Here’s how it works:

  1. Be consistent – Set a regular meeting time. It becomes a touchpoint to connect, give feedback, and celebrate wins.


  2. Facilitate – One person (two for bigger groups) guides the conversation, keeps time, and makes sure everyone is

    heard.


  3. Airplane mode – Be on time. Turn off all notifications. For 15 minutes, give each other full attention.


  4. Icebreaker – Start with something fun or grounding—a quick game, meditation, or story.


  5. Virtual high fives – Recognise someone’s effort or achievement. Even small wins deserve it.


  6. Question of the week – Discuss one question or theme. It can be work-related or just a way to share tips and ideas.


  7. Check out – End by giving space for final thoughts, questions, or requests for support.

Remote teams need a sense of belonging and community just as much as in-person ones. If you’d like to explore how to keep that connection alive—in a way that feels natural and works for your team—let’s talk.
