Virtual teams have been subject to discussion for over a decade ranging from Lipnack and Stamps (1997) through to Wakefield et al. (2008). Generally speaking, virtual teams have members in geographically dispersed locations who have a common purpose and interact through various communication technologies. This paper introduces a model that is an initial attempt to unify different models through the inclusion of all potential factors that can impact virtual team performance. The model, called Virtual Team Assessment (VTA), seeks to explain virtual team performance in terms of 19 outcomes, 60 factors and 23 processes. The outcomes are spread over four domains to provide a broad view of team performance. The factors and processes are an attempt to describe every potential impact on team performance. The VTA model is based in an extensive literature review and has been used to capture data and explain results in three case studies. It was developed because there was no existing model that would provide a frame of reference sufficient to contain all the data collected. While the model itself is not a predictive theory, it has proved useful in classifying research findings and for understanding team performance in the field. | |
