Keeping remote teams on track is challenging. The risk of “losing” participants is higher than when working offline. It doesn't take much to derail the entire group.
Facilitators play a critical role in keeping remote collaboration together. They ensure everything runs smoothly and goals are met.
You don't have a be a professional facilitator to lead a distributed group. Step up and be the facilitator in your remote team.
MURAL makes facilitating a whole lot easier. Templates created ahead of time guide the team. During real time sessions, the collaboration features of MURAL engage participants. and you can easily keep the momentum going.
