How to Manage Remote Teams

Remote teams come in many forms based on three key criteria: distance, time and culture. In contrast to traditional groups found in the same location, virtual teams must overcome organisational obstacles by integrating technology to interact with their members to achieve goals. To effectively lead and manage remote teams, you need to master the relevant principles, the many types of virtual teams and the technology used to connect them - and its associated problems. Then we explore the skills required to be an effective remote team leader.

Making decisions is crucial in any profession, especially for leaders, and is a necessary component of effective management. We show you how to pinpoint why people make poor decisions. You will then examine the role of accountability in businesses. The development of psychological safety depends heavily on trust so we explain how to cultivate team loyalty in your colleagues. We trace the connection between ‘trust practices’ and culture and explain how to implement a trust-building approach that maintains team morale and performance.

Leadership and communication face new difficulties due to globalisation and digital development. Decentralised teams and projects frequently span international, linguistic and cultural barriers. Such virtual team leadership demands in-depth organisational understanding. You'll learn how to choose qualified specialists supported by a cohesive structure that develops strong relationships while developing a sense of unity and teamwork.
