What’s the one thing you’ve done that made a real difference in async communication?We’ve been diving deep into async team workflows lately, and I’d love to hear what’s worked (or hasn’t) for others.
Using Loom to share demos, weekly updates, and recapping meetings has been a GAMECHANGER for my communication within a remote team.
Hi @Evan Fishman - Quely for Jira! 👋🏻
Chiming in with a slightly-biased answer, but it actually comes from long before my time here at Atlassian - Loom has CHANGED THE GAME for me.
For the full context, prior to joining the community team here I helped found a startup with a globally dispersed team - we had teammates spread across 4 VERY different time-zones (if you've worked with folks across an ocean, you know the feeling). While some of our teammates were willing to take midnight meetings and totally re-arrange their days around our HQ's hours, I always felt icky bragging about loving my own work-life balance knowing that other members of the team didn't have the same reality.
Loom became a life-saver in being able to feel like we were all in the room, just at different times based on our local working hours - and it gave those 'after hours' back to our teammates in different timezones. Even better, it works for everything from bug reporting and product feedback to company-wide announcements and catching up on meetings outside of your local timezone.
I was so excited to join Atlassian partially due to Loom, and have loved continuing to leverage Loom for async communication for the year+ I've been on the team here too! 💙
Another Loom mention is due here. Recording videos at 2AM in my time zone, that can be shared for follow-up and viewing by team members at a later (or earlier) time in their timezones has been a game changer. It also provides evergreen content for Confluence and to be used in our training documentation.
