As corporations accelerate their global activities, they are finding that it is essential that their project teams are able to cross both functional and geographic boundaries.

To be successful global project managers must possess the necessary process skills as well as effective communication skills. While today’s technological advances have greatly benefited the work of global teams, they have also raised additional issues such as commitment, conflict management and control. The most successful global projects (and global project managers) are those that have a carefully thought through communication strategy, open team member relationships and an understanding of the cultural differences involved in the project.
