Tools for managing extended teams should include communication tools, project management tools and HR systems. Slack is the best corporate messenger for remote teams. As for the project management tools, you can use Trello or Jira. Finally, we recommend Calamari and TSheets for HR processes.

The following are some of the best tools for extended team management:

  • Trello: a kanban-style project management tool that helps teams prioritize and visualize their work

A tool I find helpful for keeping organised is Evernote. The team version can be used to assign tasks to team members. Shared notebooks save the effort of emailing meeting minutes to attendees and create a valuable long-term record of discussions and agreed actions.

You’ve got some great tools mentioned for managing extended teams. I definitely agree that Slack is excellent for keeping communication flowing, especially with remote teams. For project management, I’ve had a lot of success with Monday.com. It’s a versatile work operating system that lets you plan and track projects collaboratively.

The platform is really user-friendly, with features like task management, resource allocation, and time tracking. You can visually organize tasks using boards and timelines, making it easy to see who’s working on what and when things are due. I also looked into the monday com pricing, and it’s pretty reasonable for everything you get.
