The Key Issues

It’s a paradox: as a member of a virtual team, you’re often more visible than you might be in person. Why? Because effective communications, trust and a strong virtual presence need to be quickly established when working with other team members. If this is done, you’ll stand out as a valued contributor. If not, you risk standing out as a non-contributor.

Remote working relationships

Influencing others virtually

Developing a flexible mind-set
