Virtual teams exist across physical and cultural boundaries. They share a common purpose, while mainly using web-based means of communicating and collaborating.
Managing virtual teams draws on different skills than those required for co-located teams. The obstacles to good communication include the nonverbal components of messages, lack of downtime for team members, multiple time zones and different languages. Moreover, trust-building is extremely challenging and quality control is difficult.
In this session participants will learn how to promote motivation from a distance, build trust and generate interactions in which communication flows effectively even in “remote teams.” OLM Consulting provides you with the tools you need for developing high emotional and cultural intelligence and managing culturally diverse teams.
