Even just 5 minutes weekly allows personalities beyond tasks to emerge, increasing engagement throughout the e-learning experience.

Don’t forget to include relational things like asking the team what would make THEM feel more connected.

Assign 2 concurrent projects to two people where one is lead for one and the other is more of a supportive role and then they swap roles for the other project. This helps foster sharing knowledge, creates consistency in output, and allows your team to work together to create something better than alone. It also builds a second expert to maintain the content for healthy redundancy.
