Virtual Teams: Now and In The Future Session Summary

Posted by Perin Colah

 

This past Friday Yael Zofi spoke at the 21st Annual SHRM-LI Conference. Her topic, Virtual Teams: Now and In The Future, drew in quite the crowd and was well received by over 300 attendees during both sessions.

 

After kicking off the presentation with a video created by one of our AIM team members, Yael asked the audience to discuss the biggest challenges they face regarding virtual teams. Many answers included technology and communication. She then introduced the eight characteristics of high performing virtual teams and ended the session by giving attendees a Roadmap for Context Communication.

 

Copies of A Manager’s Guide to Virtual Teams and Communicating Through a Global Lens were available for purchase at both sessions and a copy of her latest book on virtual teams was raffled off during lunch.

 

The conference was a great success and provided wonderful networking opportunities as well as many laughs thanks to the surprise keynote speaker at lunch!
