PATCA Partners with WIC Mtg - Building & Managing Virtual Teams April 17, 2008

Don't miss PATCA's special April meeting! We're partnering with Women in Consulting (WIC) to offer a unique opportunity to help you build virtual project teams.

Our presenter, Karilee Wirthlin, will provide insight into getting the most out of virtual teams, and networking between PATCA and WIC members will allow you to meet other consultants who have the potential to become very effective team members.

In today's world, the traditional conference room is no longer the default location for team meetings. With many companies having global presence, virtual teams are becoming the norm. Independent consultants are by nature virtual team members of their client organizations.

Consultants can leverage this relationship and form their own expanded, virtual teams with fellow consultants to augment their service offerings and deliver comprehensive solutions that solve their clients' problems.

During the presentation, you will learn:

-What to consider in forming a virtual team
-How to manage performance in a virtual team
-Tools to make remote sharing & team management easier
-Tips for managing client expectations in a virtual environment
