How to Manage Conflict in Virtual Teams
- Cultural Difference – the farther away you are from the other party, the greater the difference in culture is.
- Time zones – be conscious of the time and make sure it is feasible for both sides.
- It is well worth it to bring people together when working on high stakes projects. It lets you know how well everyone works together and it accelerates the project.
- Do regular check-ins.
- Provide cultural awareness – use organisational values as a framework when talking about cultural differences.
