Establish Clear Communication: Use tools like Slack and Zoom to ensure smooth daily interactions and transparency across tasks.
Set Clear Goals: Define project milestones and deliverables. Use SMART goals for clarity.
Leverage Tools: Utilize project management platforms like Jira or Asana to track progress and workflows.

Provide the Right Tools: Ensure access to secure networks, development tools, and collaboration platforms like GitHub.
Balance Time Zones: Schedule overlapping work hours and allow asynchronous tasks for international teams.
