Overview
Why do we need to work in the same building? That’s the question many companies
now ask. The use of virtual workers is exploding in popularity. And the potential
benefits are clear. Workers gain a better work/life balance, while having the freedom
to do great work. And employers reduce their overheads, while creating a happier,
more productive workforce.
Which all sounds great. But it’s easy to get it wrong. Managing a virtual team comes
with a unique set of challenges. The biggest of which is not dealing with the physical
distance between your team, but to reduce the psychological distance between
everyone.
