remote teams
Dispersed working groups
Remote teams are groups of people who work together without sharing a physical workspace, typically communicating through digital tools like video calls, messaging apps, and shared documents.
The arrangement became widespread during the COVID-19 pandemic: Our remote team spans three time zones.
Remote teams may be fully distributed or hybrid, with some members occasionally meeting in person.
