Why Attend This Training Course?

A remote team (also known as a virtual team, dispersed team, or distributed team) is a group of people working together from different locations. Remote leadership is an essential management skill to build and facilitate an effective remote team. Managing Virtual Teams has become a hot topic over the last few years. People are now much more likely to work from home, from their car, at alternative locations, or even on the other side of the world, which means managers might rarely see them.
