What are the challenges of working across boundaries in a virtual world? What are the challenges of managing a virtual team? How do I deal with those challenges? And what if we have to continue working in such an environment? Uncertainty is high – equally among executives and employees. What are possible/alternative solutions and how can project managers manage to work in virtual environments? The speech provides details on the tools that support project managers engage with teams in a ‘virtual’ world.
