Three situations where developing a project charted can be effected when you are working with VIRTUAL Teams AND diverse teams

Initiation, the first phase in the project management framework, is about starting up the project. In the absence of initiation, projects will not mobilize, let alone deliver results. Project results depend on the expectations and collaboration of diverse stakeholders who are across the globe. This section will impart the ways of thinking and practices project managers need to solicit and align diverse stakeholder expectations and develop team charters for high-functioning project teams.

Develop Project Charter is the process of developing a document that formally authorizes the existence of a project and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities (PMI, 2017). A good place to start creating a functional virtual team culture is with a chartering activity. According to Fisher (2011), “the written team charter document is less important than the discussion it represents” (p. 68). This section will impart ways of thinking and practices project managers need to develop a team charter effectively by incorporating team-centric and culturally diverse ideas.
