Why attend Effective Virtual Working virtual training? The last ten years have seen a rapid rise in the adoption of virtual working practices among organisations of all types and sizes. In addition to increased productivity and reduced business costs, organisations are also benefiting from a more motivated workforce seeking a better work/life balance.
These opportunities, however, are often outweighed by the challenges that virtual working can bring. Poor communication, a lack of trust and employee disengagement can all too easily make virtual workers less effective and develop into serious issues if neglected. When organisations do prepare their virtual workers and teams, the focus tends to be on developing technology skills rather than on the interpersonal and communicative aspects of working in a virtual team or environment.
Aimed at those who manage or work remotely, this interactive two hour Effective Virtual Working virtual training programme is designed to help you to understand the benefits and challenges of virtual working. Delivered via a virtual platform, this programme allows delegates to experience “best practice” virtual communication first hand and develop good practice for effective virtual working.
