Where is your workforce? Looking to strengthen collaboration and teamwork for your virtual team?
Globalization, technology and a changing work force is leading to the proliferation of virtual teams, teams which operate across location, time zones and cultures.
With the growth of virtual teams, new management competencies and approaches are needed. As well, the traditional notion and approaches to teamwork have also changed.
Virtual team management and performance issues continue to be critical with the increasingly complex business environment as firms diversify, globalize and utilize alternative working arrangements such as telecommuting. This poses unique challenges and also opportunities.
