Over-communicate (in a good way!). Send regular updates on your projects, proactively share wins, and don't be afraid to schedule short virtual coffees with your manager and key stakeholders just to connect. Make your presence felt digitally! π»
Volunteer for high-visibility projects, even if they stretch you a bit. And when you do good work, document it and make sure your manager knows the impact. Numbers and results speak louder than just being 'around'.
I make it a point to attend any optional company-wide virtual events or town halls and ask thoughtful questions. Shows engagement. Also, I try to visit the office for key meetings or team-building a couple of times a year if feasible. That little bit of face time can go a long way. π
Find mentors and sponsors within the company. People who can advocate for you when you're not in the room. This is crucial for remote folks. Network internally!
Be proactive in 1:1s. Don't just wait for your manager to lead. Come with an agenda: what you've achieved, what you're working on, where you need support, and your career aspirations. Drive the conversation!
