"Leadership is understanding people and involving them to help you do a job. That takes all of the good characteristics, like integrity, dedication of purpose, selflessness, knowledge, skill, implacability, as well as determination not to accept failure.

Letter from the CEO
Karlin 2011 Headshot
Greetings Friends,

This month I had a novel experience. I facilitated a short exercise with a team that was gathered in person, and I was on video. I'm used to doing virtual work but that was pushing the envelope! It was fun, and a success, and that was due to some specific tips and tricks that I'll be passing along to you. This issue of Momentum includes some tips for virtual teaming... and more.

Enjoy!

We at Karlin Sloan & Company work in a virtual organization and, although it sometimes presents challenges, it has been an excellent learning environment for our consulting team to gather great information for our corporate clients who are now challenged to lead multinational groups without ever meeting in person. Virtual teaming requires a few simple principles that engage participants in an ongoing sense of shared purpose and collaboration.
