April 21, 2016

We are given insight into a real-life project and how leveraging your virtual teams, both locally and overseas, to co-ordinate these in a cost effective and time efficient manner. This episode is full of practical tips and suggestions from Matt on how to utilize your virtual teams to do the majority of the organisation, where everyone works in perfect harmony to execute a successful project.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN:
*Why it’s important to have a clear project plan from the get-go?
*How important clearly defined roles within the team really are?
*Why it’s of benefit to have ‘specialists’ fulfilling particular roles and not expecting your VA to be a ‘jack of all trades’?
*Why investing the time in your ‘specialists’ upfront to understand you and your business can really pay off in the end?
*Making sure you have a project management system that is the ‘glue’ to ensure everyone communicates effectively
*How important is it to have clearly defined project goals and check-in points?
*Why it is paramount to lead the project team in order to set them up for success?
