Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 2002

As technological and cultural changes continuously cause the world to change, often teams are required to work together despite being geographically dispersed. Members of these teams may be in different countries or even different continents. As a result, more and more companies are now using virtual teams – teams that work together with a common purpose despite significant geographical separations. And with their increased frequency, many managers are struggling with both creating and effectively using virtual teams.

The Virtual Teams Guidebook for Managers was created to help managers successfully utilize this important business tool. Written by three experts in organization dynamics and teamwork, this book provides tips, strategies, worksheets, and exercises for managers who deal with and manage virtual teams. The book provides information on how to form virtual teams, and then discusses management issues that may arise, such as people issues or technological concerns. The convenient pocket size of The Virtual Teams Guidebook for Managers makes it ideal for any manager to reference, and a great guide for all members of virtual teams to use for improving teamwork. The book also contains numerous case studies to emphasize the effectiveness of these techniques, along with a special glossary to help with the terms used throughout the book.
