Virtual teams are no longer the “wave of the future.” They are here now and they are growing in use. The 2010 federal Telework Enhancement Act mandates federal agencies to create telework policies under which eligible employees can telework. And public and private organizations of all sizes are rapidly developing and adapting their own methods of teleworking.
This includes allowing employees to work at home on designated days each week or month or eliminating the office entirely and having team members permanently located in different offices and home offices across a wide range of areas and even countries.
As with any significant change, we often focus first on the disadvantages of remote work. One of the objectives of this program is to give you the opportunity to focus on the advantages and to consider different ways to reduce problems in leading virtual teams.
Managing Offsite Employees
To effectively manage a remote workforce, it’s essential to have the right employees with the necessary skills and resources. Managers need to be adept at communication, fostering a sense of community, promoting teamwork, and building trust-based relationships. Managing Offsite Employees is a half-day program designed to equip managers of remote teams with self-assessment exercises, real-life scenarios, practice activities, and more to set them up for success.
