The Teaming Virtually virtual workshop is designed to teach the concepts covered in the Teaming Virtually Handbook and provide opportunities to apply the concepts with a back-home team. The sessions are lively and engaging and incorporate a variety of interactive, table team, and group activities. The program gives members and leaders of virtual teams a proven process for dealing with the special challenges of trust, attentiveness, and communication, which are especially difficult for virtual teams.

Two or more people who work together and communicate primarily through technology are considered to be a virtual team. With so many teams comprised of members who are living in different time zones, countries, and continents, or even just in different locations in the same city, there is an ever increasing need for people who don’t see each other frequently to figure out how to work better together. While today’s technology makes it possible to work together virtually, true success for a team is not just about having access to technology. The most advanced technology will not cause people to share their knowledge or become productive while working in dispersed environments.

Program Format

The 1-day virtual learning program includes three 90-minute WebEx sessions with fieldwork. This provides in-depth skill building opportunities and is designed to be presented in one day with 60 minutes between sessions during which the participants complete the fieldwork. Each virtual learning session has a basic training design that fits an established time frame. Multiple delivery options are provided, thus allowing flexibility for a variety of platforms to be used or for adjusting time frame when necessary.
