Building social capital when you work remotely

Social capital has always been integral to collaboration at work. Since hybrid-remote work has rendered many employees less visible, it has become essential for them to invest in their own interpersonal relationships.


Just like any other currency, social capital can be earned, invested and spent. These are five strategies for hybrid-remote employees to grow their social capital intentionally:


  1. Be gracious with your time.
  2. Communicate strategically and with intention.
  3. Track your efforts.
  4. Stay on top of your inbox.
  5. Be generous and practice gratitude.
