Phone calls and online meetings. We usually start our work week with meeting where we agree on week schedule :)

Consider using video conferencing instead of just phone or email when communicating with your colleagues. Seeing each other's faces can help create a more personal connection. Using the right tool (like https://www.workhub.ai/connect/) is much essential.
