Book ID/图书代码： 07682016B89200
English Summary/英文概要： The future of work is virtual, with dispersed teams, telecommuting, remote working and virtual meetings becoming the norm in many sectors and industries around the world. At its best, virtual working can be productive and creative, tapping into the best people wherever they are and bringing skills and experience together efficiently and at low cost. But it can also lead to isolated and disengaged workers, ineffective communication, and uncoordinated and even counter-productive activity. Virtual Leadership discusses how leading a virtual team in our fast-paced world requires a new set of skills and a facilitative leadership approach.
Virtual Leadership provides practical strategies, tools and solutions for the key issues involved in managing at a distance. How can I provide leadership, motivation and vision through virtual channels? How do I make virtual meetings effective, engaging and productive, and ensure actions are followed through? How do I create engaged and cohesive teams across distance, cultures and languages? How do I stop virtual team members silently checking out, distracted by local challenges and offline issues? With diverse case studies and examples, this is the essential guide to making a difference as a leader of virtual work.

This book is a comprehensive handbook for anyone who spends time in the virtual world of work. It is indispensable and required reading for leaders in the modern workplace.
Graeme Codrington, TomorrowToday. Futurist and expert on the future of work’
I am so pleased that Penny has written this book and can share her skill and inspiration for really successful virtual working with even more people. When I met Penny I was working with three global companies and was spending half of my days (and lots of early mornings and late nights) on ’calls’ with colleagues. Penny taught me so much about how to make these into really successful meetings and reading this book reminded me of all that and more. Penny is also the master of communicating in a clear and simple way, even though the subject matter is complex. I recommend this book to everyone who needs to do business in a ’same time, different place’ context - I am confident that practising what Penny recommends will transform the quality of your work.

Penny has done a magnificent job of covering every single element which you need to master. I’ve been managing virtual teams for over 20 years and thought I knew it all. I didn’t. And you won’t either until you have read this book.
Pete Bennett, Founder, Buzz Conferencing, UK’
Penny’s latest book is your own personal leadership coach. Pragmatic and practical, this book will help you avoid horrible conference calls and quickly boost productivity wherever your team are based. Targeted sections let you dive into solutions for issues you are facing with your virtual teams today. Highly recommended for team leaders, managers and those working virtually - whether in a formal leadership position or not. Elizabeth Harrin, Business Change Manager and Author of ’Collaboration Tools for Project Managers’, UK’
