FIROVIA Developing people and organisations to achieve excellence in business performance

Managing a team is no longer as straightforward as it used to be. With the development of technology, globalisation and an increase in flexible working, managers are now often tasked with leading and managing teams that are not always present with them. There are challengers when managing a team remotely in the same country, but these can be considerably heightened when dealing with different languages, cultures, business practices and attitudes. This of course makes the perfect recipe for disaster. The only thing that stands between success and failure is the ability of the manager to control the team effectively.
