TODAY'S DISCUSSION

Because of the international projects many organizations around the world have been adapted to the new environmental conditions in which

they work, determined by the phenomenon of globalization.Communication tools and electronic data transformation have paved

the way for the creation of project teams virtually. This allows team members to work together regardless of their location or historical,

cultural, educational, and socio-political differences.

In Brief

The improvement in the latest technology has helped employees who work remotely to unleash their potential.

Employees who work in remote projects can also improve employee retention and happiness, thus attracting more qualified candidates

The objective is to provide reliability for team workers to improve their work and life balance while eradicating negative impacts on project management.

Remote working can improve productivity when that balance is achieved.

Introduction

The performance of the employers is measured by monitoring their progress and accomplishments of their activities.

There are 3 types of performance measures. They are:

1. INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE: An employer strives to work independently on a specified task and is also responsible for completing the assigned task successfully.

2. TEAM PERFORMANCE: Team members work together to achieve the goal of their team and this involves teamwork and communication between team members.

3. PROJECT TEAM PERFORMANCE: The goal of the project team should be more precise and they should aim to achieve the objectives of the project.

Performance

MOTIVATION OF A TEAM MEMBER: When a team member is working on a project, motivation is an excitement level or the drive that encourages the team members to work efficiently in a project team virtually.

COMFORT OF BELONGING TO A TEAM: Comfort is an important element that gives a team member a feeling of ease of working in a remote working environment.

COMMUNICATION: The latest and swift development in communication technologies has helped many organizations to work on remote projects and made it possible for employees from different parts of the world to work together in remote project teams. .

Conceptual Model

TRUSTWORTHINESS: Team members must trust other team members to accept one another’s ideas, share Information and knowledge openly, and ultimately enhance the performance of their team.

TEAM COOPERATION: The project team’s cooperation improves over time and when the team members communicate and share project-related information with each other.

RELIABILITY OF PROJECT INFORMATION: The information that is shared between the team members should be demonstrable and consistent.

PROJECT GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: Project managers should know what strategies must be used to achieve the goal of the project. They are responsible for selecting the right team for the project and motivating them.

Handling team members who are working virtually is an extremely challenging job for most of the managers.

In order to get the best of their work, a clear communication routine must be established, and steps must be taken to build trust and review to make sure that the team members are working properly.

The project management team should form a schedule for meeting in order to reporttheir updates regularly.
