Effective team working is crucial to productivity and central to the engagement and motivation of staff whether onsite or remote. But as the workplace shifts in response to COVID-19, it is safe to expect that Remote or Virtual working will play a significant part in the 'new normal'.

This course will enable you to increase the productivity of your remote staff by building and managing efficient, self-directed teams, empowered to work in collaborative and innovative ways in their virtual setting.
