OD Community Mission & Vision
Our mission is to advance
the field of organization development. We
achieve this mission by sharing
our knowledge freely, learning from one another, and building
relationship with colleagues. By sharing knowledge freely, we build and
strengthen the community knowledge base. We
reinvent our skills and
prepare for future opportunities by learning from
each other. As a free
and all-volunteer learning community, it is the relationship we have with
one another that determines our growth and success.
Our vision is a united,
energized, and mobilized OD community focusing
on improving our
practices, strengthening our research, and advancing
the future of our

Effectively Managing and
Communicating in Virtual Teams |
|
Program
|
As our economic reality requires us to do
more with less, and as we continuously integrate electronic
communication and social media tools into our professional
practices, we find ourselves often working in virtual teams.
Virtual teams can span the globe, or can represent a group of
professionals in close proximity who choose to manage projects
and communication in digital environments. How can we leverage
the benefits of working together electronically without the
distractions and distortions that arise from mismanaging
communication in this environment? How can we productively lead,
build trust, resolve conflict, share knowledge, and foster a
sense of cohesiveness among team members who do not work
together face-to-face? How can we be effective team members
ourselves? What can we learn from the insights and cases
presented at this session that we can apply immediately to our
own demanding business requirements? Bring your questions and
plan to participate in this highly interactive session designed
to give you access to research and concepts from the Department
of Communication at the Rutgers School of Communication and
Information, and to give you the tools to apply this in the
workplace immediately.
