Hi there ,
It's a beautiful sunny day as I write this to you. But while I'm enjoying a few days of English summer, other people I work with are in the middle of winter. It's just one of the differences you get used to when you work with virtual teams.
This note has a couple of updates for those of you that need to work with others who are far away. If this describes you, read on!
Virtual Working Summit
I'm running something a bit different that could be very useful for you. It's the Virtual Working Summit. The whole idea is that it is virtual, so you don't need to travel to join in and hear some fantastic speakers, from David Sibbet to the Lazy Project Manager, and me.
People last year described the Summit as 'a wonderful learning experience', 'outstanding' and 'excellent'.
Reserve your spot here. Remember, it's fr*e*e to register and listen in online.
Hope to "see" you at the summit!
