Virtually Disastrous!!
“Virtually Disastrous: What you really need to know about leadership across distance” by Gary Thomas
Globalisation is here to stay – yet no one is really prepared. Many teams tasked with managing globalisation are clearly out of their depth. This is primarily because these teams work virtually and internationally over great distances. The team members no longer sit face to face in their offices, instead they communicate across countries and continents via modern communication media.
Leading a conventional team to top performance is difficult enough, not least because of the inevitable group dynamic involved. When the context becomes virtual, this all too often leads to management failure. This book describes in an entertaining style the art of leading virtual teams including practical tips, helpful suggestions, and numerous illustrative examples that span many industries and countries along the four core challenges of virtual team leadership today.

Podcast: Why feedback often doesn’t work
Firstly, feedback is often misunderstood as being the same as praise or criticism. The purpose of feedback is to provide a learning opportunity. Secondly, your feedback can fail if your message of what you’ve observed and what you think your counterpart should change isn’t specific enough. And thirdly some people tend to use the term ‘feedback’ when what they’re trying to do really is tell the person how angry or how upset they are with them. That’s not feedback.
