A project is about to start with a global project team.

 The best approach for a project manager to engage a global project team, especially when travel is not an option, is to invest in a virtual collaboration/colocation environment. This allows for real-time communication, collaboration, and the building of team dynamics in a virtual space. It supports the creation of a shared workspace where documents, tools, and information can be accessed and worked on collaboratively, thus fostering a sense of team unity and improving productivity.
