But the challenges faced by anyone building a team are only exacerbated when that team is spread across different offices.<\/p>\n<p>You can\u2019t just gather everyone around spontaneously to share an update; the team in one office may be celebrating\u00a0a win while the rest of the team is sleeping; having a difficult conversation with a team member over Skype is never going to be the same as taking them out for a coffee and sitting across the table from them; and maintaining team morale across multiple offices can often feel like an insurmountable task.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m tipping that anyone responsible for managing remote teams can relate to at least one or two of these scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>Many of us now work on a regular basis with colleagues dispersed across different buildings, cities, countries and even continents, however, managing a team that\u2019s spread out in this way can present huge challenges, even for the most experienced bosses.<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago I posted an article on LinkedIn about our\u00a0own experience\u00a0building a globally distributed team\u00a0at RecruitLoop and our friends at\u00a0Villanova University School of Business Online\u00a0have created this terrific visual guide revealing how easy it is to successfully manage a team of remote workers<b>\u00a0<\/b>by implementing certain best practices.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to share some of your own experiences either as a remote employee or as a manager of remote teams.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10443 size-full\"
