About this audiobook

ONLINE MEETINGS THAT MATTER is a guide for managers of remote teams and those introducing online collaborations practices. With a focus on strengthening the relationships between team members and using technology to support your team’s work, this book covers a range of ways in which members of remote teams can gather in the online space, as well as how individuals can prepare to make the most out of their valuable time together. This is a practical book that will help managers and their teams reconsider not just how they run their meetings, but their whole approach to online collaboration. Drawing on the wealth of many years of experience in the remote space, Pilar Orti, the founder of Virtual Not Distant, distills her knowledge of running online meetings and coaching managers to do the same, in this actionable and straightforward guide.
