High Performing Virtual Teams
High performing teams are rarely an “overnight success.” It takes time for a working group to develop into a cohesive team where the collective genius produces extraordinary business outcomes. And what happens when such a team shifts from in-person work to distributed, virtual work?
“The old rules of what makes a great team still apply, whether you’re a remote team or not. You can’t build a culture if you don’t have trust, accountability, and mutual respect.”
~Tracey Halvorsen, Fastspot
