Virtual teams have become essential units in successful organizations. Where they do not exist, opportunity is lost. Where they are not functioning effectively, opportunity is lost. International virtual teams are the key to some of the biggest successes and failures in the global workplace while organizations learn to operate as complex webs of people. Organizations that successfully employ global virtual teams can access the human resources that allow them to compete internationally.
