In a project with team members located in different countries and time zones, common understanding about task distribution is crucial for team performance. Here are the recommended actions:
Perform team-building activities (B): Team-building activities can help improve communication and understanding among team members1. These activities can be designed to focus on task distribution and roles within the team, helping to ensure everyone understands their responsibilities1.
Revisit the communications management plan (D): The communications management plan outlines the methods and technologies used for communication among team members2. If the team doesn't have a common understanding about task distribution, it may indicate that the current communications management plan is not effective. The project manager should revisit this plan, making necessary adjustments to improve clarity and understanding2.
