Having well-managed, virtual or remote teams as part of your workforce can give your company a cost advantage as well as access to a wider pool of talent. However, managing a virtual team requires a significantly different set of management skills. This comprehensive training course teaches you how to build and manage a virtual team.
This course covers the following topics: how to establish an excellent virtual team, handling technical barriers as well as time zone and cultural differences, technology and methods for effective meetings and work collaboration, how to set clear and precise goals, handling poor performance, building trust among employees and much more.
This comprehensive training course is available across the U.S., including Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Birmingham, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Jackson, Los Angeles, Manhattan, Miami, New York, Orlando, Philadelphia, San Antonio and Seattle.
After completing this course, participants will have learned to:
Derrick (trainer) was awesome, informative, witty, sharp and articulate. I would definitely attend another seminar that Derrick is presenting at.
I found the course beneficial for my particular circumstances, it also gave me the tools required to build better relationships.
There are an estimated one billion virtual workers in 2013, and the number is expected to rise in the future. With a global workforce, you are provided with a cost effective and talented pool of employees to draw from.
Managing a virtual team is harder because of the challenges posed by time difference and cultural differences. Virtual Team Building and Management training course provides participants the knowledge to overcome these challenges and succeed in creating a highly productive global workforce.

When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.
We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some can be in the room with others offsite.
Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files), and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of attending a course in a room with other people.
We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.
You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.
A hybrid class is with some people connecting online, and some people physically together in the same room.
We provide the Training Management Centre which is an information hub before, during and after training.

At the completion of training participants are encouraged to create an action plan, and invite an accountability buddy via their Orgmenta App.
In your Training Management Centre you have transparency to the action plans so you can see what people are going to do differently.
Our systems and people make it easy to identify how you’ll be able to measure impacts,
and then report on the success in the weeks or months after training.
It’s surprisingly easy to make it so that your system can automatically be up to date with all the training record details you need.
