Many organisations worldwide are currently exploring the potential gains to be made from working with virtual teams. Although many different things are meant by use of ''virtual'' (and indeed by ''teams''), usually it denotes groups of people with common purpose and goals working in different locations and often different time zones; they will be interconnected via a variety of telecommunications networks, perhaps including the Internet and intranet, video conferencing, shared white boards, as well as telephone, mail and email. For organisations implementing such virtual teams there is a great need for guidance, in terms of the organisational structure and support which needs to be put in place. This book offers a practical guide to developing virtual teams, providing both an overview of what is involved and also a clear simple framework around which organisations can build their own implementation process. Although the different support technologies are discussed (at a generic level), the thrust of the book is on the organisational and human factors issues which must be addressed to make virtual teams a success. It contains detailed case studies to show how virtual teams work and where they can go wrong.
