Meet Me in Cyberspace:
Conducting Effective Virtual Meetings
Virtual meetings are essential for the remote team to survive. However, the
challenges of virtual conferencing constantly arise: delayed starts, loss of control
for the organizer, multi-tasking by members, and disengaged participants.
Virtual meetings must have a solid agenda and should be organized in order to
be effective. By creating a more efficient and organized framework for virtual
meetings, your company will reduce the costs associated with low productivity,
overlooked deadline, and poor morale.

Making Norms the Norm:
The Team Operating Agreement
In a virtual team setting it is critical to have guidelines for how your team is going to
work together. These guidelines are called a “Team Operating Agreement”.
A Team Operating Agreement defines the set of behavioural norms that the team
commits and agrees to abide by. It guides the team’s actions and interactions.
Geographic, ethnic, personality and cultural differences can impact the
effectiveness of how individuals and teams act, interact and operate.
Creating a Team Operating Agreement will minimize the potential for conflict,
increase open communication which builds a collegial team. It will also build the
skills to increase awareness of differences and how to be effective with others you
do not see. It will enhance tolerance levels of the entire team while they become a
more in-tune cohesive business family.
