The Remote Maturity Model
The Remote Maturity Model identifies immediately and easily where your team, organization or department stands and which steps needs to do to improve. For every organization there are 4 stages and one threat.

- They don’t have proper tools to manage members o, plans, projects or products.
- Remote members feel disconnected.
- Goals are not achieved and constant control and over-the-shoulder monitoring is necessary.
- Deadlines are not met, budget is overrun.
- An organization that is ready to work remotely, has all the tools to do it but doesn’t have the right processes in place.
- Results are not met unless someone constantly pushes for it.
- Communications are spread all over and managers and entrepreneurs are constantly battling to get things done.
- Time is still the main measure to define work.
- An organization that is Remote Oriented, has all the necessary tools to work flexibly or remotely.
- Has a results-driven focus.
- People feel part of the organization, even if far away, they are committed.
- Their effectiveness and efficiency are not at their best, due to the lack of Structured Communications and Internal Manifesto.
- They need to work during the same time and asynchrony is not always an option.
