TrainingZONE Online Workshop
Improving the performance of project and virtual teams
Tuesday 3 July 2001, 13:00-13:45 BST
at https://www.trainingzone.co.uk/workshop/
The workshop will focus on how a project team can work effectively, particularly within a large, bureaucratic organisation. How a multi-disciplinary, often geographically separated team can more quickly reach true consensus, make decisions, influence management, and operate in harmony within a network.
Among the issues to be considered:
- Using the power of purpose to exert authority, and unite the team
- The role of members in a matrix team - and where that leaves the line managers
- Building true consensus amongst members from different functions
- How project teams can influence senior managers
- How a virtual team can meet/communicate effectively at a distance
