It’s been a few years now, since many of us first shifted from leading co-located teams to primarily virtual teams.

While we have learned how to utilize the tools and platforms available to connect us, in many cases we remain more disconnected than connected to our virtual teams.

For leaders, the world of virtual work continues to offer new challenges as the traditional skills of “managing by walking around” and face-to-face connections have been replaced by email, instant messages, and conference calls.

This webinar will focus on how to help leaders re-connect with their virtual teams by exploring the mind shift required, as well as the systems, work processes, and leadership practices that must change to lead successfully in the virtual world.

• The importance of increasing attentiveness
• Fostering a strong community among virtual team members
• Prioritizing employee development
