This talk discusses the challenges and best practices for managing globally distributed teams. How to recruit and develop teams in remote locations, the investment needed for successful distance management, and extending company culture while building local culture will be discussed, focusing on communication, inclusion, and adaptation. Based on experience with managing teams distributed across EMEA and across North and South America, we'll talk about communication strategies, keeping remote career growth on a level playing field with HQ, and when to respond with yes, repeat, no.
