 In a global project with team members dispersed across different countries, it’s crucial to foster engagement and collaboration. Forming a core group of team leads representing members from each country can help facilitate communication and collaboration1. This approach can help address cultural differences and time zone challenges, and ensure that all team members feel represented and heard.

Asking team members to agree on a meeting time prior to setting up virtual meetings can help accommodate different time zones and ensure that all team members can participate2. This approach respects the time of all team members and can help improve attendance and punctuality at meetings.

Establishing virtual one-on-one’s with team members to address any issues and/or concerns privately can help the project manager understand individual challenges and provide tailored support3. This approach can help build trust, improve communication, and ultimately, enhance team engagement4. References: PMI Global Congress 2015—North America, APM, BrightWork.com, LoopinHQ
