Fostering Trust and Communication in Virtual Teams

Virtual teams have specific challenges that in-person teams don’t face. Because virtual team members can’t run into each other in the break room, or drop by each others’ desks to discuss a work issue, a virtual team has to be very intentional about how the team communicates, collaborates, and builds trust. This course is part of the Virtual Teams Pocketbook series, a series that provides tips and tools on leading a successful, motivated team of people who work apart. In this course, you’ll learn the steps to creating a great virtual team kick-off meeting, how to establish clear guidelines for communication and working together, and ways to build trust between team members.
