初级中级高级

As a recent hire at my new job, as expected, a lot of things seemed scary and overwhelming. The scariest part was not the unfamiliarity with certain tasks or certain tools, but in communicating with higher-level coworkers, managers and bosses. This perhaps comes from holding a junior position and not being completely aware of the role I play in different areas at work, but it was definitely harder because I was part of an all-remote team, who I had never met before.

不出所料，作为我新工作的一名新员工，很多事情似乎令人恐惧和不知所措。 最可怕的部分不是不熟悉某些任务或某些工具，而是与高层同事，经理和老板沟通。 这也许是由于担任初级职位而没有完全意识到我在工作中的不同领域所扮演的角色，但这绝对要困难得多，因为我是一个从未有过见过的全远程团队的一员。

Although I had previously worked remotely before, working remotely for a small startup vs a bigger company definitely comes with different challenges. As a result, after giving myself a bit of time to gain some comfort and understanding to the new role, I started reflecting on the pain points I was experiencing and how my experience within the design team, and as a new hire could be improved through a list of “Working Remote Essentials”. My goal was not only to improve my day-to-day but that of my teams and of potential new hires.

尽管我以前曾在远程工作，但为小型初创公司与大型公司进行远程工作肯定会面临不同的挑战。 结果，在给自己一些时间以适应和理解新职位后，我开始反思自己所经历的痛点以及在设计团队中的经验以及作为新员工可以通过以下方式得到改善“工作中的远程基础”列表。 我的目标不仅是改善日常工作，而且还改善团队和潜在新员工的工作。

我的远程工作必备 (My Working Remote Essentials)

Creating an Internal Design Kit/system

创建内部设计套件/系统

As I worked on different projects and collaborated with different people, within the design team, or other teams I started noticing a lot of communication issues. Being new to the company and to the team, I wasn’t sure if this was an issue I was facing or if others were facing it too. As a result, I automatically assumed it was only me and noted down things I had to keep in mind for future productivity and efficiency. These included things like, where to find the fonts we use, where the past client work is, where we keep the documents for client calls, a running list of the software we use and when, documents we use within the design team, marketing team etc.

当我从事不同的项目并与不同的人合作时，在设计团队或其他团队中，我开始注意到很多沟通问题。 作为公司和团队的新手，我不确定这是我面临的问题还是其他人也面临的问题。 结果，我自动假设只有我一个人，并记下了将来生产力和效率时必须牢记的事项。 这些内容包括，在哪里可以找到我们使用的字体，在过去的客户工作中所处的位置，在哪里保存客户调用的文档，所用软件的运行清单以及何时在设计团队，市场营销团队中使用文档？等等

I noticed that a lot of design asset locations were unsure by many people in the team and most of the parameters and design requirements was already familiar to everyone so there wasn’t a need to keep it stored somewhere. As a recent hire, this was a huge problem for me and I found it delaying a lot of my work.

我注意到团队中许多人不确定很多设计资产的位置，并且大多数参数和设计要求已经为每个人所熟悉，因此无需将其保存在某个地方。 作为新近雇用的人，这对我来说是个大问题，我发现这拖延了我的许多工作。

As a result, I created an internal design kit/system. This serves to be a one-stop-shop for members of the design team, new hires, and members of other teams to find everything they need related to the design team’s assets.

结果，我创建了一个内部设计套件/系统。 这是设计团队成员，新员工和其他团队成员的一站式服务，以查找他们所需的与设计团队资产相关的一切。

The kit includes software we use, a list of important contacts within the company, previous work, previous and current clients, monthly and weekly to-do’s, UX, and Marketing Kits with branding assets. In addition, it also includes an additional learning section where team members can link books, certifications, courses, and articles that they’ve read and recommend.

该套件包括我们使用的软件，公司内部重要联系人列表，以前的工作，以前和当前的客户，每月和每周的待办事项，UX和带有品牌资产的营销套件。 此外，它还包括一个额外的学习部分，团队成员可以在该链接中链接他们已阅读和推荐的书籍，证书，课程和文章。

Team Rituals:

团队仪式：

In addition, there were a number of other things that could improve the communication and the bond within our team. I came across a recent publication by InVision called Remote Work for Design Teams (100% recommend you read the whole thing, it’s amazing) where I learnt of specific ways other remote design teams operate and how they have handled miscommunication in their own setting. After coming across this publication, we quickly incorporated it as a weekly reading in our team, where we would assign 2–3 chapters per week and discuss it in our Monday morning check-in’s.

此外，还有许多其他事情可以改善我们团队内部的沟通和联系。 我遇到了InVision最近发布的出版物《设计团队的远程工作》 (100％推荐您阅读整本书，真是太神奇了)，在其中我了解到其他远程设计团队的具体操作方式以及他们如何在自己的环境中处理误解。 遇到该出版物后，我们很快将其作为每周阅读纳入我们的团队，在该小组中，我们每周分配2至3个章节，并在周一早上的登机手续中进行讨论。

What we incorporated that has made our designing and our communication stronger:

我们的整合使我们的设计和沟通更加紧密：

Weekly Design Critiques:

每周设计评论：

These consisted of sharing something you’re working on with your team for some constructive feedback. It started with setting up a whiteboard through InVision’s Freehand tool to showcase how you’re thinking. Before the critique, it was important to share with your team: What the project is, What stage it’s in, What your current constraints are and What you’re looking for feedback in specifically.

其中包括与团队共享您正在研究的内容，以获得一些建设性的反馈。 首先通过InVision的Freehand工具设置白板，以展示您的想法。 在进行批评之前，与您的团队分享是很重要的：项目是什么，项目处于什么阶段，当前的限制是什么以及您正在寻找特别的反馈。

Weekly Show and Tell

每周表演和讲述

Show and Tell anything and everything! Whether it’s design related or not, learning from your team is HUGE. We’re all constantly consuming media, and the media we consume can be similar in many ways, and also vastly different considering our different interests. I’m a huge believer in not only growing in the design field, but expanding your knowledge and interest in other areas that can in turn not only help you grow personally, but professionally as well.

显示并告诉一切！ 无论是否与设计相关，向您的团队学习都是巨大的。 我们都在不断消耗媒体，我们消耗的媒体在许多方面可能是相似的，并且考虑到我们的不同兴趣，也存在很大差异。 我不仅在设计领域不断发展，而且在其他领域扩大您的知识和兴趣的坚定信念，反过来不仅可以帮助您个人发展，而且还可以在专业领域发展。

Although this might already happen naturally, when working remote, we don’t have the luxury of being able to walk up to someone’s desk or turn around and show someone something. Setting a specific time helped our team grow in other areas that in turn helped us be better designers as well!

尽管这可能已经自然发生，但是在远程工作时，我们无法走到别人的桌子旁或转身向别人展示东西。 设定特定的时间可以帮助我们的团队在其他领域发展，进而帮助我们成为更好的设计师！

Re-establishing a communication strategy

重新制定沟通策略

Lastly, all of this comes together with a great message. Working remotely can be harder, and even harder if you don’t have a set communication strategy in place. As I notice other teams go completely remote too, re-visiting your communication strategy is super important. Working from home comes with a number of new distractions, motivation-killers and snack time(a lot of snack time).

最后，所有这些都伴随着一个很好的信息。 远程工作可能会更加困难，如果您没有适当的沟通策略，则可能会更加困难。 我注意到其他团队也变得完全遥不可及，重新访问您的沟通策略非常重要。 在家工作会带来许多新的干扰，动机抑制因素和零食时间(大量的零食时间)。

Finding a way to establish a new communication strategy with my team, managers, and bosses helped me manage my time better, be more efficient, take care of myself and those around me while designing amazing things! I was able to learn to say “No I can’t, I have too much on my plate”, or “Do you think we can hop on a quick call to clarify some things from our client meeting”. This helped my teammates and I understand where we stood as a team and where we could help each other out!

寻找一种与我的团队，经理和老板建立新的沟通策略的方法，可以帮助我更好地管理时间，提高效率，照顾好自己和周围的人，同时设计出奇妙的事物！ 我学会了说“不，我不能，我忙得不可开交”，或“您认为我们可以跳一个快速电话来澄清客户会议中的一些事情”。 这帮助了我的队友，并且我了解了我们作为一个团队的立场以及可以互相帮助的地方！

Working from home is a completely different ball game but it can be so so great! As we all turn remote during this time, there’s a number of resources out there that have helped me out in my own role as well as the people around me. I’d love to share these with you and hear about your own WFH adventures :)

在家工作是完全不同的球类游戏，但它是如此的棒！ 当我们所有人都在这段时间变得遥远时，有很多资源可以帮助我发挥自己的作用，以及帮助我​​周围的人。 我很乐意与您分享这些信息，并听听您自己的WFH冒险经历:)

Thank you for reading — hope you’re staying safe!
