Virtual Management

Virtual Teams
The majority of resources working within organisations are divided into teams of various types. This allows different objectives of the organisation to be worked upon by appropriate specialists, in parallel. Traditionally, these teams have been co-located together, or close by. Today, with multi sited organisations, complex partnerships and globalisation, teams and team members may be located many kilometres apart, in different time zones and with different work cultures.

Most teams with separately located resources, working collaboratively, can be considered as Virtual Teams . These could range from teams of specialists in neighbouring offices, or a single team split over many locations, to a aircraft design project spread over several continents and cultures.

Migrators have significant experience of working with virtual teams. Migrators have provided advice and consultancy on many aspects related to working within and establishing virtual teams. 

• Justifying and setting up virtual teams
