physically meet in person. Virtual teams conduct meetings, collaborate, manage their projects, provide feedback and support, and complete their work remotely. Virtual teams require good teaming practices (which are addressed in the previous sections). Beyond that, virtual teams encounter additional challenges related to a remote work environment. Those challenges are addressed in this section, along with important tips for successful virtual teamwork.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"
