As the world becomes smaller and more people coming from different nationalities and different cultures and living in different countries are forming project teams, the most challenging skill that we expect from project managers nowadays is their ability to manage and handle virtual teams.

This requires exceptional skills using different virtual tools and platforms like trello, Gira, Monday...etc as well as exceptional communication skills such as building trust, leadership, negotiation skills...etc
