“...not
only have the authors provided an all-in-one blueprint for
project management of any project in the 21st century, but
they have opened the door for us to be willing participants in
the continuing evolution of the very project on which the
three authors collaborated in the first place. This provides
for us readers a useful project guide and a living example of
this guide in action.”

Virtual
collaborative team environments face unique challenges because
their communication is not face-to-face. Managing
Virtual Teams: Getting the Most from Wikis, Blogs, and Other
Collaborative Tools provides practical advice for managers
of distributed teams who must design the internal systems and
meet deadlines with a diverse team, and for team members who
want to develop and maintain professional relationships. To
address these needs, this book is divided into two parts. Part
I discusses team dynamics, project management and development,
and forms of communication. Part II covers the types of tools
currently available for collaboration such as wikis, blogs,
RSS feeds, and more, and describes the different feature sets
of each.
