Communicate effectively in virtual teams |
How to maximize performance when managing teams internationally and at distance
Managing a virtual team presents the team leader with special challenges. How do you build relationships between team members with limited (if any) opportunities to meet ? How do you manage communication, especially when some members may be working in a foreign language ? How do you manage conflict and deal with the misunderstandings which inevitably arise ?
If you are a virtual team leader wrestling with such challenges, this course will help you to manage these and other issues and to build a successful and effective virtual team.
Objectives

Participants should have started to face the challenge of achieving results and building relationships with colleagues and partners in other countries. This practical 2-day course will develop your skills to get the best out of remote team members over whom you often do not have hierarchical power.
