Increase the togetherness on your remote team by simulating the “human-ness” that we have when working in the same place. To combat the “out of sight, out of mind” mentality, remote teams need to work harder to increase that sense of team and improve communication. In this workshop we will explore the various tools and techniques we can use to simulate the office, online! You will learn: How to create a high bandwidth workspace Tools that allows you to communicate reliably Techniques for keeping everyone on the same page This workshop will be given remotely by Lisette Sutherland, Director of Collaboration Superpowers & locally faciliated by Pierre Hervouet. Join us and see the latest technologies and best practices for working together from anywhere. Audience: anyone who have to deal with remote, distributed teams, stakeholders.
