| Topic: Managing Virtual Teams for Real Results | Track: PM Tools | |
| Presenter: Rick Brenner | Room: 24-25 | 9:30am - 10:30am |
Course Description:
In many organizations, virtual teams are now officially the way of things. Everything about such projects or operations is more difficult than face-to-face teams—including figuring out how to declare victory when failure is what actually happened. What's a virtual team? You'll find various definitions if you surf around a bit, but the main features of a virtual team are what make them so difficult to manage—the people are dispersed geographically, they meet infrequently or never, and they might even come from different cultures. And these three factors conspire to make what's usually easy, difficult—and what's usually difficult, impossible. But on top of all of that, there is organizational politics. Project sponsors and managers must learn to navigate the politics of all organizations that host project team elements. And they must understand the politics of managing team elements that lie outside their own organizations.
This program helps people who sponsor, lead or participate in virtual teams. Participants learn to appreciate the true challenges of the dispersed environment. They learn how the economics of the dispersed environment differ from the economics of the face-to-face environment, and how the picture conveyed by the organizational cost management system distorts our view of these differences. Most important, they learn strategies and tactics for making the dispersed environment productive and effective. Whether you’re a veteran of virtual teams, or a relative newcomer, this program is a real eye-opener.

Although many successful project management practitioners are “accidental project managers,” successful projects should not be “accidental.” Research studies have identified reasons for project failure and reasons for project success.
