Virtual Power Teams - Masterclass Description (3 days)

Often when a Project team is physically dispersed, they suffer communication delays and sometimes complete failure for a wide range of reasons. International investments are put at risk due to intercultural issues or simply because the team members feel isolated and demotivated.
