As more number of organusations work with a global workforce, often team members are spread over more than one locality. A team, where the team members work away from the office, needs greater boost in morale than regular teams or members may feel totally disconnected with each other. So, how to achieve a fantastic virtual team?

1. Virtual Teams: What makes them
click?
By Moumita Basu

2. Communicate, communicate,
communicate
Use mails, phone calls, personal visits,
video conferences, or social media to
bond with team members.

3. Answer Mails on Time
Answering mails on time can create a
huge difference to virtual workers, as
many equate late replies with decrease
in interest.

4. Organize meetings, virtual or real
Virtual meetings can go a long
way in keeping teams together.
Use a few minutes to catch up and
increase bonhomie in members.

5. Play games with team
Playing together is a good idea to keep
friendliness intact.
Organize online games and contests to create a
buzz.

6. Have a Real Life Event
Getting a chance to meet each
other and share notes, however
rare, works better for virtual
team members.
So, if people can join in for a
cup of coffee when you are in
town, go for it.
