Weekend coffee catch-up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">A common ritual on Monday is to spend a few minutes talking with coworkers near you about the weekend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">It doesn\u2019t have to take long\u2014a few minutes is all it takes:<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3324\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3324\" style=\"width: 840px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=r09vPFM0RVM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3324 size-large\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/image1-66-1024x672.png\" alt=\"RingCentral Video conference call\" width=\"840\" height=\"551\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3324\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">For example, you can start a video meeting on\u00a0RingCentral Video\u00a0from your computer or phone in just a click.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">To do this over video, just send a quick message to your colleagues to see if they\u2019re free to chat. It might feel odd at first because everyone\u2019s used to getting on <a class=\"waffle-rich-text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/video-call.html\">video calls<\/a> only when they need something done, but it\u2019s a great way to start the week.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h.47fdnxwtg503\" class=\"c6\"><span class=\"c3\">2. Daily stand-up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">For many teams (especially creative teams) with quick deliverables due every day, a daily stand-up is a useful tactic you can use to start the day in an organized way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">If other people on your team are remote or working from home too, then it\u2019s an even more efficient way of getting everyone some face-to-face interaction with each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">To make it easier to build this into a habit, put a recurring event in your calendar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/remote-work-playbook.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3525\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/490719603-WFH-Remote-Work-Playbook-banner-image-1380x490-blog-1024x364-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"840\" height=\"299\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h.1tvywyyxcqdj\" class=\"c6\"><span class=\"c3\">3.

It just means they take a few minutes to catch up on their day and socialize for a few minutes together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c1\"><span class=\"c0\">If you can\u2019t swing by someone\u2019s desk at the end of the day to say goodbye, you can still do it over video!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><a href=\"https:\/\/ringcentral.valuestoryapp.com\/meeting-value-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-48150\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/meetingvaluecalculator.png\" alt=\"meeting value calculator\" width=\"2000\" height=\"880\" \/><\/a><\/b><\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"h.kuyd9g2ad5ky\" class=\"c9\"><span class=\"c11\">Missing those IRL interactions?
