Webinar by Dr. Penny Pullan The future of work is virtual, with dispersed teams, telecommuting, remote working and virtual meetings becoming the norm in many sectors and industries around the world. At its best, virtual working can be productive and creative, tapping into the best people wherever they are and bringing skills and experience together efficiently and at low cost. But it can also lead to isolated and disengaged workers, ineffective communication, and uncoordinated and even counter-productive activity. Outline of subjects covered: #Virtual Leadership #Working with Others #Creating Common Ground #Technology Options #Complications for Virtual Working #Engaging People: What Works #Visuals #Trust in Virtual Teams
