Virtual assistants and remote workers underperform because leaders don't tell them which way is north. Without explicit expectations, anyone fails, whether they're in the office or across the world. The difference between good and elite organizations is how clearly you spell out what you want.
I think a lot of times VAs underperform. It's just because you didn't set expectations. You know, you didn't tell them which way north is.
Yeah, well, and you make a good point. You talk about how VAs can underperform because they're not given expectations. I think that that qualifies for anyone that you're working with within your organization, whether they're in the office and you're seeing them all the time or they're working from across an ocean. I mean, we can build a thick culture. It doesn't matter where we are geographically. But clarifying expectations are what really sets a good organization apart from an elite organization.
