Chōrei (Morning Assembly)
A short whole-team morning gathering to greet each other, restate the mission or values, and align on the day.
Theme
Everything on Rituals of Work about hybrid & remote teams, in one place.
A short whole-team morning gathering to greet each other, restate the mission or values, and align on the day.
Before signing off, everyone writes one line per open task: the next action, when, and where — so their minds can switch off.
A daily shared coffee break where the whole team stops working together — no laptops, no agenda.
A short Monday kickoff where each person shares their single most important outcome for the week and what support they need.
Protect one day a week from internal meetings so everyone gets uninterrupted time for deep work.
Begin team meetings with a one-word "weather report" so everyone can signal how they're arriving — sunny, cloudy or stormy.
People who mentally switch off from work in the evening come back with more energy and less exhaustion — even with the same workload.
