Why can't your team perform?

Collaboration can exist and grow if its fostered. The same things that foster collaboration in office can be done remotely, but you do need to be explicit about it.

One thing remote does select for is those people who are independently productive.

Is that your experience? I see people loosing the empathy with colleagues, colleagues are just a handle on slack, not committing in the level they should, not attending meetings. Meetings where people are just looking their mobiles, don't turn it on their cameras and don't participate at all at meetings.. It happens a lot and with some people the whole social aspect deteriorates pretty fast. In the office there is a dynamic that for some people is vital, the social aspect... i.e people tend to be much less rude and open to compromise face to face than just online..

I guess at base, what is keeping these people in jobs where collaboration is required, along with a standard of base professionalism and courtesy?

In other words, why haven't these people been counseled to change their act? And if no progress has been made, have them seek employment elsewhere?

Just because you're in a remote environment doesn't give you free reign to be an asshole.
