Lost on an Island: Building Remote Collaboration in Cross-Continent Distributed Teams
Adriana Mosnoi, FFW
Andrew Willden, FFW Agency
Working in a global company means that as an employee, you get to interact with people from different countries all around the world and you’ll have to make it work. Sometimes, this collaboration can present some challenges due to language, culture and physical barriers. I’d like to share our tips and tricks for successful and long-lasting collaboration and prepare you for your next cross-continent call. We will discuss about:
Working through different time zones
Working with cross-functional teams in different continents
Distributed Organization
Knowing roles and talents
Balancing schedules with clients, teams and partners across 12 time zones
Team building remotely & client relationships: Do you filter or share (hint: radical transparency)
Cross-language communication
Speakers
