Critical Success Factors
Definition IA virtual team is a working team – a collection of individuals- who are mutually depended in their
tasks- who shares the responsibility on the
results - who perceives themselves and are
perceived as an intact social unit, incorporated in one or more social systems, which together manage their relations across organizational boundaries
(Gibson & Cohen 2003)
Definition II
Research from MIT in 1977:
Seperated by more than 50 feet
… then we actually can consider ourselfs
as working in a virtual team
Since 1977 – the price of communication has collapsed
- How does this affect the way we work???
Definition III - Homo Conexus
Du ut des – I give – so You can give
-shaped people is needed(Morten T. Hansen Havard Business School)

Democratic principle: Make people
have the same opportunity to participate
Why Virtual Management• Current leadership theories are developed
by people born when the average company had less than 4 employers and 93% of all jobs were connected to agriculture (Gary Hamel)
• Communication is almost for free
• The Internet is the operating system of innovation (Gary Hamel)
• The Global Village has now 4 billion citizens – global market and global production
• The age of hyper specialization (HBR Winther 2011)
Virtual Teams Outperform colocated teams

Algoritmic taskWhip and Carrot works!
Heuristic taskWhip and Carrot does NOT work

wind”
Tray has two functions
Add Whip and carrot, and the task will take
(far) more time
Knowledge and social interactionsCognitive Processes
Socio emotional Processes
Kreins 2004
Three Levels of Collaboration
Sharing
Collaboration
Joint Action
No Shared decisions
ConversationShared decisionsMaking products that could not be made without the team
Community – where decisions kind of ties the individualsThe team is a kind of a familiy
Task distribution
The do´s and don’t´sFrom the MIT Study in 2009:
• Emphasize both the Socio emotional and the task related processes!
• Emphasize teamwork skills• Promote self-leadership across
the team• Provide for face-to-face
meetings• Foster a “global culture.”
Further Questions• Virtual Management across
cultures?
• Virtual Management across organizational borders
• Connection to Web 2.0
• Virtual Management and Leadership 2.0?
• …?
