In this webinar Harvey Robbins discusses the six keys to making global virtual teams work more effectively.

Included in the discussion are factors such as:

1. The creation of goals/objectives,
2. The identification of roles/responsibilities, the recognition of potential barriers to team success,
3. Issues such as leadership and communication, and
4. The role personality differences plays in team effectiveness

The last key is identifying and remediating the cultural differences that occur specifically with global teams; how they make decisions and resolve conflicts based on their cultural norms.

The two presenters are well versed in both the creation of high performing project teams and dealing with the cultural differences present in global virtual teams.
