A guide to effective project management whilst working remotely. The impact of Covid has had a profound effect on the way we manage our projects, with many of us working remotely from home, visiting projects when required, and running meetings via Teams, or some other software dedicated to have those face to face meetings electronically.

Remote project management is how project managers connect remote and hybrid teams and ensure everyone works together to meet the objectives of the project. In that sense, it’s no different than managing any project, except that you execute the project remotely, normally, in most cases from the comfort of your home.

Managing a remote team creates unique challenges that traditional project managers don’t need to consider. That’s why remote project managers use online project management tools to virtually connect people who are physically distant.

Recent events have proved that many industries could survive, and even thrive, using remote project management. Unlike other methodologies, remote project management is flexible.

It doesn’t follow a rigid set or rules, though it is viable with both traditional and agile approaches. It can even support hybrid work management that unites disparate styles of work and makes them compatible.
