Course Overview:

Anyone who manages or leads people in  a remote or virtual environment would benefit from the training provided by this Managing a Virtual Team training course materials. The course would suit people managing teams that work from home, on the road, at various locations or any other situation where the team is not based in the same place from day to day.

Course Contents:

Managing Virtual Teams has become a hot topic over the last few years. People are now much more likely to work from home, from their car, at alternative locations, or even on the other side of the world, which means managers might rarely see them.

Consequently, managers that are asked to lead these virtual teams not only face the usual leadership dilemmas, they also have to be able to adapt to these challenges in an environment where the rules have changed.

Managing virtual teams requires a different approach. It means developing new skills, communication methodologies and techniques to get the best out of teams and improve organisational and personal performance.

Perhaps you’ve always had virtual teams and you want to make your managers more effective. Or you want to refocus existing teams by developing your management team skills. Whatever your need, Trainer Bubble provides you with a comprehensive training course on managing a virtual team that will make your life easy.

Why is taking a virtual team training course a good idea?

Well, just imagine if you were better able to:

Inspire your virtual teams, bringing out the best in each and every individual.
Overcome the barriers and isolation that working remotely can cause.
Develop a virtual team that works collaboratively and with the interests of the organisation at heart.
Increase their teams performance through clear goal setting and communication.
Improve the effective use of technology within the organisation.
Develop trusting relationships that ensure the team works towards common goals.
Keep their teams happy and reduce staff turnaround.

Success = Value + People + Process

With innovation happening more than ever, the new agile project economy requires more and more people across organisations to manage projects successfully, leading to many of us quietly slipping into the role of the unofficial project manager!
The problem is very few people receive formal training on how to do it. Stakeholders, scope creep, limited training, and a lack of process all combine to raise the probability of project failure costing organisations time, money, and employee morale
Is it any wonder 65% of all projects fail* each year!
The good news is—unofficial project managers can build confidence to lead high-value projects and engage teams in a way that inspires them to volunteer their best efforts.

Outcomes
Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager™ combines best practices from agile and waterfall project management to equip learners with the mindset, skillset, and toolset to engage and inspire team members.
Success starts with the core agile principle of value—a project must deliver value to Noble! Once value is established, it is people who make projects successful through a consistent process.
Project management isn’t just about managing logistics and hoping the project team is ready to play to win. The skills of “informal authority” are more important than ever before, so team members are inspired to contribute to project success!

This course will help learners:
Build strong informal authority that inspires project teams to consistently volunteer their best efforts.
Utilise a consistent process to start and finish high-value projects on time and with quality.
Influence and engage others to define a clear project scope, including clear deliverables and risk strategies.
Model openness and agility to apply proactive change management and deliver high-value projects.
Project Management Framework
The Project Management Framework guides you through five distinct elements in the life of any project. Coupled with the foundational behaviours taught in the programme, this framework can help you deliver highly successful projects again and again.

Who Should Attend?
This programme is for anyone who finds themselves leading projects at work, regardless of whether or not their job title says, Project Manager!
It is NOT a deep dive into project management processes, nor is it a qualification based programme.
Whilst it would be helpful to either be involved in or to be leading a project, during the programme, this is clearly not essential. However, it is advisable that the participants have had some experience, whether as a project member or as the person who is leading the project (officially or not)!
Project Management Institute (PMI)
FranklinCovey is a member of the Project Management Institute (PMI) Authorised Training Partners (ATP) Programme and this course has been designed to satisfy the project management education requirement for PMI Certifications as well as Professional Development Education units (PDUs) needed by PMI credential holders.
