In the twenty first century it is nearly impossible to engage in any type of organizational task without group support. Increased employee participation and a heightened focus on distributed (or geographically separated) teams highlight the role of virtual teams in the workplace. In spite of the increasing importance of virtual teams in organizational and educational settings, few resources currently exist to guide practitioners in the area. Virtual and Collaborative Teams: Process, Technologies and Practice provides a variety of perspectives on virtual and collaborative teams, bringing together writings by corporate practitioners and researchers. Contributors range from corporate practitioners to academics from the fields of business, communication, psychology and management in the United States, Europe and Asia. Book jacket.
