The reality across many organizations is that managing geographically dispersed individuals on a “virtual team” becomes more and more viable every day.

However, running a virtual team effectively is not as easy as setting up some fancy technology and managing remote individuals in the same way they’d be managed if they were collocated.

This webinar will explore the best practices that can be employed to overcome the inherent challenges of managing an effective and cohesive virtual team, as well as highlight many of the benefits which can be achieved using the virtual team management techniques that are currently used by IAG to manage our teams of consultants and client engagements across North America.

Lead The Way

To better understand PMI’s Talent Triangle, this session looks at project management through the lens of the Leadership portion of the Triangle.

Plans are useless without effective execution. The role of the project manager is often viewed as a very technical role; tracking progress, measuring costs and filing reports.

TidalShift will look at how the role of the PM is actually a leadership role at its core and what leadership skills can be brought to bear that will not only make your project more successful, but make the job more enjoyable. Talent Triangle – Leadership
