A Dyadic Composition To Foster Virtual Team Effectiveness: An Experimental Study, Gamze Karayaz
Engineering Management & Systems Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The importance of effectiveness for virtual teamwork continues to gain momentum as technology and globalization of work accelerate. The implementation of virtual teams provides one approach to enhance competitiveness, overcoming the disadvantages of space and time differences through collaborative technologies. The influence of structure to virtual team performance has not been clearly established in the literature. The purpose of this research study was to investigate the effectiveness of a dyad structured approach for virtual teams using a quasi-experimental research design.
This research investigated four questions related to the influence of structure on virtual team effectiveness related to task performance, communication …
