Join the Virtual Working Summit!

Is your project team scattered all over the place, and most of your meetings done on the phone?  Many project managers lead a virtual team and getting the best out of people and their time can be a challenge when you are not based in the same office.

You can learn how to do work better with a virtual team by joining The Virtual Working Summit, which runs from 28 June through to 9 July 2010.

I’m one of several experts taking part in the first ever Virtual Working Summit. It consists of short, practical interviews over ten days this summer and is hosted by Dr Penny Pullan from Making Projects Work. You can join wherever you are, by phone or web. For more details, see the Summit website.

The Summit will cover:

• Building Trust Remotely
• Navigating Across Cross-Cultural Tripwires
• Tools for Successful Virtual Working
• Communication on global projects
• Sustainability and Virtual Working
• Negotiating Internationally
• Social Media and Virtual Teams (this one is my presentation)
• Conference Calls Made Easy

And there will be other topics as well.

The Summit is free, and the first of its kind.  It will give you access to leading thinkers and practical tips to make you even more effective at working virtually – which has to be useful for project and program managers looking to be more efficient.

If you can’t make it to any or all of the presentations, Penny is recording the proceedings and they’ll be available to buy on CD, so you can listen to what you missed at your leisure.

If you are able to attend, why not register now? I look forward to ‘seeing’ you there!
