Must have for virtual team members and leaders! 28 Nov 2010
By EWozniak - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I have been leading a virtual team for years at a global company and have read practically every virtual team book that has been released. All of the books I have read addressed the challenges faced by virtual teams, but only "Virtual Team Success" provided practical examples of how to address these challenges and how to avoid future issues. I applaud the authors for giving virtual teams a handbook of sorts to use as a guide going forward. My virtual team is far from perfect so I hope to incorporate some of the tips and guidelines to make our team more efficient and ultimately more successful.
A Great Practical Guide 6 Dec 2011
By dswift - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I am relatively new to the world of virtual teams, primarily through my doctoral studies over the last couple of years. We were introduced to Virtual Team Success this year and I only wish it had been introduced earlier. It provides the reader with practical real world ideas relating to building and operating within virtual teams. This book is packed with information from starting up teams to developing process all the way through thoughtful reflection of evaluating outcomes. A must read for those interested in or already incorporating virtual teams into work or education.
