Corporate
Distant Management Program
Inspiring growth
“Developing a common culture in distant management, improving the performance of teamwork” Corporate organizations have changed tremendously over the past few years. One of the main changes is in the way teams are set up. In the past, teams were developed by putting people together, letting them spend time getting to know each other before they were asked to complete assignments and achieve common goals. Nowadays, we tend to have networks of people producing results, across borders, across functions. Now more than ever, “management” is required to lead this group of people to accomplish organizational goals… the basis of management remains the same yet it requires the willingness to reinvent in order to optimize work from a distance with a remote team. With this in mind, here are some of the key questions: • Distant management, remote workers: is this really new? • How do we use the variety of communication tools to establish a relationship with remote workers and create a sense of cohesion even with the distance? • How can we develop trust and team spirit as the foundation of establishing a collaborative way of working across the distance? • How do we establish common references, clarity of vision and work processes beyond the geographical, cultural, functional borders?
