What if your “distributed team” is really just a set of individuals working almost independently? As the team’s Scrum Master and facilitator, can you optimize performance by creating a real team that tackles the work together, communicates effectively, collaborates appropriately, and has fun doing it? Can you do all that without ordering anyone about?
It can be done; people are doing it. As a servant-leader, your strongest weapon of influence may be remote facilitation – creating collaborative online team conversations that deliver.
In this session, you will:
- Learn the key ingredients of great remote facilitation
- Experiment with them in small-group practice activities
- Leave with ideas to apply with your team.
