Course Overview

Top

Work is no longer defined by where you go – it is what you do. Research conducted by Gartner expects that the number of worldwide remote workers will double between 2008 to 2014. Remote and long-distance work will increase in volume and intensity, with people spending more than 80% of their time by 2015 working collaboratively at a distance.

There are a number of challenges however that come with virtual working. Team members can feel disconnected from the organisation, there is an increased likelihood of miscommunication, and it takes a different approach to build trust with virtual colleagues.

The Working of Virtual Teams 1 day workshop is designed for anyone who works as a member of a virtual team
