Notes to answerer
Asker: You mean googling distance management or googling bestuur-op-afstand? Because the latter gave me explanations of what it meant, but no translation... Also see discussion in a bit. Thanks.


Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  writeaway: googling is considered an annoying remark, but googling will solve virtually all these questions. (doing one's own) research a major part of any translation job. /yes, at first but then we move on.

  -> Thanks, writeaway. I often share your view but learn a lot from googling for others as well as myself. If a translator is insecure in English possibly with another language as mother tongue, I am happy to allow some slack. We're all learners, I feel.
