with people whose locations span the globe. To achieve real success,
companies can't just plug into the new technology.
They must learn how to collaborate effectively when people are not in one

One of the world's leading experts on virtual teamwork, Jaclyn Kostner,
takes readers step-by-step through the process of creating fast, effective,
