Ownership

Every client wants to quickly ramp up their offshore team to push their product to market on time or simply meet urgent internal deadlines. One proven factor for success has been the encouragement and empowerment of the offshore team to be included in the ownership of the project (product) they are working on. From day one, we encourage members of your newly formed team to not only identify themselves with your organization but to also align with larger overall business goals as established by your organization. 

​

It is crucial as a client that you engage each individual team member in order to build morale and team cohesion. Great teams are not built in one week.  Restaff will continually support you by facilitating communication and team building activities to serve towards this goal.

Communication

We recommend that you establish trusted communicators for your onsite and offsite teams. In cross-functional teams, each member is encouraged to communicate as needed but we have found that having one person for each offsite and onsite location be responsible for keeping track of all communications is the best way to approach remote software development. Our business consultants will help prepare teams to communicate with the implementation of tools such as: Asana, Slack, Trello, InVision, and Jira. This is an ongoing process and Restaff is there all the way as each client development team figures out which method is best for their style of management and collaboration.
