Virtual workplaces are fast becoming commonplace. Shrinking carbon footprints, worker satisfaction and increased productivity are all good for employers (and arguably the planet), but what does it mean for you? How do you get someone's attention when there's no door to bang on? How can you trust someone you can't see or manage in person? How can you enjoy the process and find satisfaction in the result? You are invited to join the conversation or participate remotely via live conference call and video streamed from the panel.

Takeaways:
1. Strategies for establishing clear communications
2. Strategies for evaluating virtual vendors
3. Resources for working virtually
4. 3 things to avoid that will absolutely doom your project.

The panel was lead by Ian Rhett (CivicActions), Jenn Sramek (CivicActions) and Tom Heck (International Association of Teamwork Facilitators). Details available at http://civicactions.com/are_you_for_real_panel
