Early this year COVID-19 abruptly shut down group gatherings and we were forced to exclusively communicate online and collaborate remotely. Negotiations, project planning, team meetings, strategy sessions, internal and external stakeholder meetings that we once thought were impossible in digital and virtual environments occurred routinely from afar, with varying degrees of success and lessons learned along the way. As we transition into the "new normal", what will be the new hybrid expectations and how can we thrive from a distance?

In a recent World Commerce & Contracting survey, our members indicated the volume of emails received, and the number of meetings, has substantially increased since lockdowns began. Are those habits sustainable; are they effective? How do you maximize your online presence, and what are the tools, means, and methods for effective online collaboration in the "new normal"? TASK’s focus on Online Communication and Collaboration will maximize your virtual presence and the effectiveness of your team’s online collaboration with each other and externally.
