T – reat
E – everyone respectfully to
A – ccomplish
M – ore
This makes the team unique, as each shares energy, passion, and enthusiasm. We may be working individually from our own space and place, but we should not forget that there is a TEAM to whom you can seek support and talk.
We value each of our team members and treat everyone with respect and care just, as a family does…….
- We Embrace a Culture of Inclusivity
In a virtual setting, inclusion is significant. Ensuring every team member feels valued and heard. We encourage diverse perspectives and foster an environment where everyone’s input is respected and appreciated.
- We Foster Open and Transparent Communication
Clear communication forms the bedrock of any successful team, especially in virtual settings. We regularly send messages through our team channels to check on each other and open channels for discussion to create a sense of unity and ensure everyone is on the same page.
- We Define Clear Roles and Responsibilities
Everyone has their responsibility and is accountable for every action they perform. Role clarity is critical to avoiding confusion and fostering a sense of purpose. We ensure that everyone understands their contribution to the team’s objectives.
- We Encourage Continuous Learning and Growth
We share and encourage each team member to pursue professional development. This could be through workshops, webinars, or access to relevant resources. Empowered team members are more likely to be engaged and motivated.
- We Celebrate Achievements, Big and Small
We cheer for our team members’ achievements, no matter how big or small, to keep our team members motivated. Every milestone, successful project, and personal victory is recognised by cheering and applauding our team. This boosts morale and reinforces team members’ sense of accomplishment and camaraderie.
- We Promote Flexibility and Work-Life Balance
We are very fortunate to have the ability to work flexibly. Most of our team members enjoy their breaks; we also give space to respect personal time and provide the flexibility to adapt to individual needs. A well-balanced team is a happy and engaged team.
- We Leverage Technology for Collaboration
We also encourage team members to utilise collaboration tools and platforms to facilitate seamless work for them and their clients. From project management tools to communication platforms, technology can bridge the physical divide and enhance productivity.
- We Create Opportunities for Social Interaction
Even in virtual settings, social interaction is vital for team cohesion. We meet our team every first Friday of the month to see and have fun, from casual chats to fostering connections beyond work tasks. It reminds us all that we are human and need constant care from each other.
It is a privilege to enjoy this kind of career, but it is important that our workplace embraces team engagement spirit and not just a buzzword—it’s the cornerstone of our success.
We build a thriving team and a happy VA community by nurturing a culture of inclusivity, transparent communication, and continuous learning.
To remind us that an engaged team is a motivated team.
VEVA’s let us all go the extra mile to deliver exceptional results and drive our team’s success TOGETHER! Go Virtual Elves!!!!
