Learning how to work together, apart, is not a nice-to-have. Remote facilitation and leadership are now core competencies. The challenges of maximizing productivity for teams separated by geography and time-zones have been magnified greatly by the impact of COVID. On-site work sessions are considered the gold standard in fostering collaboration. Now, the stark reality is the urgent need to learn how to work differently remotely while executing strategic initiatives, change management and achieving business outcomes in a timely way.

Leadership reports over 50% of their time is spent in meetings and team activities with only half of that time considered productive … The 50-50 Club™. It’s worse with remote teams. That’s because remote teams require a different kind of leadership and a different kind of toolkit.  Leading a remote team is infinitely more complex than leading a co-located team.  It’s not intuitive or common sense.  Paradoxically, your shortcomings as a leader or facilitator get magnified when you work from a distance.

The Aquilina Consulting Group’s Launching and Leading Virtual Teams (LLVT) dramatically reduces wasted time by providing a clear methodology and step by step tools that replace what is lost when people are not in the same room.

LLVT fosters engagement, collaboration, and a sense of community in adverse times. It is all achieved by the online training of participants and their leadership, using a combination of technology tooling (MS Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, WebEx, Mural, Miro, etc.) and a dozen of our proven Group Process tools.

When you learn to lead remote teams with LLVT’s tools and methods, you can confidently and successfully lead any team, for any purpose, from anywhere in the world.
