Book description:Get solid collaboration from team members in remote locations
Globalization and new technologies have made team collaboration from distant geographical locations—on the road, from home or client sites, even on the other side of the globe—a routine part of business. Managing these teams requires new skills and sensitivities to maximize team and organizational performance.
Emphasizing pragmatism over theory and offering helpful tips instead of vague observations, Manager’s Guide to Virtual Teams helps you bridge the communication gaps created by geographical separation and get peak performance from employees you rarely see. You will learn how to:
Keep team members in remote locations motivated and involved
Coach for peak performance via e-mail, telephone, teleconference, and videoconference
Help widely scattered team members understand their contribution to the business
Build consensus for decisions among virtual team members
Learn effective communication and feedback techniques for enhancing team performance
