When working remotely, it’s easy to blur personal and professional lines or see colleagues as close as family. But healthy boundaries matter: • Your company is a workplace, not a family. • Your manager is a leader, not a caregiver. • Your colleagues are teammates, not lifelong confidants. • Respect your work relationships, but don’t overextend emotionally. Advocate for fair pay, call out issues, and prioritize your well-being. Remote work thrives on balance. Protect your energy, nurture life beyond the screen, and remember: your value isn’t defined by your job. How do you stay grounded while working remotely? Share your tips! 👇

🚀 Remote Work vs. Office Work: What’s Really Best for Your Team?🚀 Having worked in an office for the majority of my career, and then more recently in a remote environment, I’ve seen firsthand the unique challenges and benefits of each. Sure, remote work offers incredible flexibility and can boost productivity, but it can also lead to feelings of isolation and a disconnect from the team. On the flip side, in the office fosters spontaneous collaboration and strengthens team bonds, but there is also a lot of wasted time in chit chat, gossip plus the rigid work hours. So, let's look at the Pain Points.... Remote - Struggling to maintain team cohesion and communication? Office - Finding it hard to balance personal life with long commutes and office hours? In my experience, the key isn’t necessarily choosing one over the other but finding a balance that leverages the best of both worlds. Hybrid models are becoming increasingly popular for this reason. So, my question to you is, what’s working for your team, and where do you see room for improvement? I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences. Let’s discuss how you’re managing this balance and what strategies have made the biggest difference for you.  Let’s dive into this conversation together! 🌟 Maria Perlman any thoughts on this? #RemoteWork #OfficeWork #Leadership #TeamDynamics #HybridWork
