Virtual Team Model (VTM) Training

Description

Successful innovation, project, and engineering teams can produce better and faster results than intact, co-located teams … IF … the virtual team leader is trained in specific skills to enhance virtual team performance.  Virtual team leaders create an environment in which goals are achieved, team members grow their skills, and projects are completed within time and budget constraints.

Leveraging theory and experience, the Virtual Team Model delivers five elements and 16 practices to implement for immediate impact.  While we recommend following all the practices described, organizations can start with the most critical need for their teams to realize performance improvements by bridging communication gaps.
