"I write about research that's conducted by teams who are often dispersed across the world. This course has helped me understand why sometimes I have difficulty connecting/sharing meaning with members of a team. Although I am not always part of the team, I need to gain their trust and this course offers some excellent tips for what I can do to build trust with people I'll probably never meet face to face. Korrine is very easy to listen to and her slides are very easy to comprehend." Leanne W.

All the techniques covered in the course are very practical and easy to implement. They are based on my 12 years experience as a virtual team leader, plus the experience of hundreds of virtual team leaders and members that I have trained, consulted to, worked with and interviewed. They are proven to work!
