At its best, virtual working can be productive and creative, tapping into the best people wherever they are and bringing skills and experience together efficiently and at low cost.

Virtual Leadership provides practical strategies, tools and solutions for the key issues involved in managing at a distance. With diverse case studies and examples, this is the essential guide to making a difference as a leader of virtual work.
