I was able to use some good information from this book when presenting to a national conference regarding telecommuting." "A well-structured presentation of a very current topic, particularly for those working with large corporates or global supply chains. Key points are summarised nicely at the end of each chapter, and full references are provided. A future edition would be improved further by including a short case study highlighting some of the main differences between virtual and traditional teams, and pitfalls or advantages of each." "Paul writes in a very comprehensive and engaging way. He explains how to get the most out of your virtual team with easy to follow sections. It was an enjoyable read and I highly recommend it."
