It’s important to treat your nearshoring team the same way you would treat your onsite team. After all, they are both integral parts of your company and play a vital role in its success. Although the Nearshore team is likely hired through a partner like Holycode, there is no downside to seeing them as an integral part of your team.
It sounds logically and very easy but we’ve come to the realization that a lot of companies never mastered the skill of treating their teams equally.
It sounds logically and very easy but we’ve come to the realization that a lot of companies never mastered the skill of treating their teams equally.
Here are some reasons why treating your nearshoring team the same as your onsite team is important:
- It promotes a sense of unity and collaboration within your company. When your nearshoring team feels valued and respected, they are more likely to work together with your onsite team and contribute their skills and expertise to the success of the company.
- It ensures that everyone is held to the same standards. Treating your nearshoring team the same as your onsite team means holding them accountable for the same quality of work and performance standards. This level of consistency and fairness is essential for maintaining a positive and productive work environment.
- It helps to build trust and improve communication. When your nearshoring team feels valued and included, they are more likely to trust and communicate openly with your onsite team. This can lead to better collaboration and problem-solving, as well as a stronger company culture overall. Communication should never be underestimated as one of the key success factors in remote or nearshored teams.
- It can improve morale and job satisfaction. Treating your nearshoring team the same as your onsite team shows that you value their contributions and appreciate their hard work. This can lead to higher morale and job satisfaction, which can in turn lead to better performance and productivity.
- It sets you as a company apart from competitors that don’t treat their teams equally, therefore helping your cause in attracting and retaining the best talent in the market.
- It prepares the ground for you to be able to also hire completely remotely and become an even more dispersed team which can bring the benefit of tapping into markets with great and specific talents.
In conclusion, treating your nearshoring team the same as your onsite team is essential for the success of your company, or at a minimum for the success of your development team. It promotes unity and collaboration, ensures consistency and fairness, improves communication and trust, and can boost morale and job satisfaction. Invest in your nearshoring team and see the positive impact it can have on your business as so many Holycode Clients have before you.
