How do you all deal with subordinates who are always MIA when working from home? I have one team member who consistently takes 30 mins to 2 hours just to reply to messages. It becomes a real issue when we need to make quick decisions or solve things on the spot. I don’t want to micromanage, but it’s affecting the team’s flow. Any advice on how to address this without sounding too controlling or accusing?
