I personally love using the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2RyouSD\">Logitech C922x Pro Stream<\/a>&nbsp;webcam. Prices are weird on this cam at the time of the writing of my article. I paid $80. It has great lighting and no fish-eye effect. I\u2019ve had others that are dark or blurry. Spend a bit extra, if you can, to make your presence with your team as good as in person. An extra $20 can make all the difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"http:\/\/chrisharden.com\/index.php\/mastering-trust\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chrisharden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MasteringTrust-RevC_WhitePaperMock.png?resize=144%2C197\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-133\" width=\"144\" height=\"197\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chrisharden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MasteringTrust-RevC_WhitePaperMock.png?resize=744%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 744w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chrisharden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MasteringTrust-RevC_WhitePaperMock.png?resize=218%2C300&amp;ssl=1 218w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chrisharden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MasteringTrust-RevC_WhitePaperMock.png?resize=768%2C1057&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/chrisharden.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/MasteringTrust-RevC_WhitePaperMock.png?w=1190&amp;ssl=1 1190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 144px) 100vw, 144px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>R<em>emember that you can achieve building a sense of team, trust, and bond with your teammates while working from home.
