In the echo chamber of remote miscommunication, itâs easy to point fingers. But what if the solution isnât a âwhoâ but a âglueâ destined to silence the noise? Hereâs what weâve all been missing.
Hey, Welcome Back!
Who do you blame when miscommunication strikes?
Itâs inevitable: at some point your remote team is NOT going to understand the assignment.
When this happens thereâs usually only two ways it can go. Either the miscommunication is your fault, or someone on your team has missed a beat.
đ At least, thatâs what we believe⌠but weâre wrong.
Because miscommunication lives on both ends of the exchange.
According to Christophe Pasquier, CEO of Slite â blaming your team for something inevitable is perfectly pointless and doesnât solve a thing.
đ It doesnât matter if a person is on a different floor or in a different country
đ¤ˇđż And it really doesnât matter HOW youâve communicated
Short punchy updates or long detailed commentary: both kinds lead to inefficient teamwork.
đ˛ Surprise!
I heard this truth bomb at the remote work conference in Lisbon on a recent trip.
And I could not stop thinking about it. It stuck with me like glue and completely reframed my perspective.
Think of the last time your team had communication issues.
âĄď¸ Crossed lines, delayed timelines, and the unbearably slow pace of progress.⏠ď¸
Itâs frustrating.
And even more so because assigning blame to a person never fixes the problem.
Pasquier says these are symptoms of something bigger. Everyone thinks theyâre communicating clearly, and the other party is to blame.
We donât even consider option three: the root cause.
Itâs time to step back and see the bigger picture.
đĄ To acknowledge whatâs really going on here so that we have a real shot at a solution. The good news is that this solution is here.
Itâs something that promises to solve miscommunication issues forever.
Not another tool, no. Something that behaves more like glue.
Itâs episode 46, and Iâm sidestepping the âwhoâ to focus on the âglueâ this week and how it will improve team dynamics. No more blaming, no more shaming â and no using miscommunication as a reason to return to the office.
đ Fact is: thanks to AI, miscommunication is coming unstuck.
