Successful Virtual Teams With Jessica Lipnack

18. Jan, 2009 0 Comments

If you want to know stuff, you go to the experts. So, when you want to know how to work successfully in virtual teams, you go to Jessica Lipnack.

She is CEO of NetAge, a company she cofounded and runs with Jeff Stamps. For three decades, Jessica and Jeff have provided expertise and tools that allow their clients to collaborate more effectively. They have written six books, including the landmark “Virtual Teams“.

It may not come as a surprise that my video chat with Jessica is all about running virtual teams, the role of management and how to prepare managers to lead virtual teams.

This is an episode in a series of video chats I will be having this year; brief but intense conversations with experts from around the world.

You can view the video below… or follow this link to YouTube.com.

I also highly recommend this free 1hour webinar from Jessica called “Leading Virtual Teams: Managing When People Are At A Distance“.

    Great Topics. Would love to see experts thoughts on becoming a 21st century project manager, and continuing to be relevant in an age of AGILE, Self Organizing, and SCRUM based Project Management. All of those disciplines seem to want eliminate the influence of traditional PM skills that we are taught by the PMI institute.

    Thanks for the suggestions. You can view this as “eliminate”, or as “evolve” :)
