Overview

As technology advances, organizations are moving away from the traditional workplace setting to embrace the possibility – and the benefits – of “going virtual.” However, leading a geographically dispersed team is radically different from traditional face-to-face leadership, and it comes with a unique set of challenges, such as how to collaborate, manage accountability, inspire motivation, and build trust. Thankfully, help is here.

President of OnPoint Consulting and remote team expert Rick Lepsinger will present Leading from a Distance: Practical Tips for Successful Virtual Leadership. Based on the groundbreaking research study explored in his book Virtual Team Success, Rick will explore four critical areas that affect virtual leadership with practical strategies for effectively managing others from a distance.

Attendees will learn

  • The key characteristics and behaviors of high-performing virtual teams and virtual team leaders.
  • Strategies to enhance trust in a virtual work environment.
  • How to apply tools to manage accountability from a distance.
  • Skills and techniques to manage effective virtual meetings (a.k.a. v-meetings).
