Title: Hello remote workers!<p>If you&#x27;re in a remote team you know how difficult is to &quot;connect&quot; with other colleagues. Everybody is always in a hurry so there&#x27;s no deeper synchronization.<p>In my team, we&#x27;re doing a &quot;check-in&#x2F;out&quot; inside each meeting where we take turns by answering &quot;With what emotion you&#x27;re entering&#x2F;exiting this meeting?&quot;. From time to time we change the question with something different in order to build awareness. This helps with establishing mindfulness and understanding what is the emotional climate in the team. For a team of 5-10 people, it takes 5-10 minutes to do it. It makes space to slow down before jumping to the agenda. We also do retreats every 3rd month but a lot of stuff can happen in 3 months...<p>What are your habits for increasing your team&#x27;s emotional intelligence?<p>Disclaimer: I&#x27;m doing product research in this field by implementing a tool[1] which helps teams to harmonize their emotional states.<p>[1] here&#x27;s a sneak peek <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;dDkfRVg" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;imgur.com&#x2F;a&#x2F;dDkfRVg</a> but I won&#x27;t go into details as I fear it may derail the topic. Part of it is inspired by research from Yale and Geneva universities and their departments for EQ.
