Training for virtual teams: An investigation of current practices and future needs
调查440名培训专业人士，识别当前组织对虚拟团队领导者和成员的培训实践，并对比有效与低效培训项目，总结出最佳实践以提升虚拟团队绩效。
Organizations are creating virtual teams at an ever-faster rate. Virtual team leaders and members from distant locations work together and communicate with each other using a variety of information technologies. Results from a survey of 440 training and development professionals identify current organizational training practices aimed at preparing leaders and members for virtual team assignments. Comparing organizations with more effective and less effective virtual team training programs allowed us to identify a set of “best practices.” We offer practical guidance regarding the effective use of training to promote high-quality virtual team performance. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
