Week 15-4 An Analysis of Global Virtual Teams: Conflict & Leadership

Pink Lady's Web Poster was about "An Analysis of Global Virtual Teams: Conflict & Leadership".
The poster very well organized and the illustrations made it easier to understand. Lot us work with Virtual teams and we all have to deal with the time differences, understanding the cultural differences. The summary of her research was very helpful.
I completely agree with her points about the communication issues and the information overload with emails etc.,

The sources of conflict are very important to remember and make sure we don't fall into them . Also, the Organizational Dispersion sometimes creates as us versus them attitude even we all are working for the same organization and on the same project.

Communication Barriers

Cultural Diversity

Organizational Dispersion

Technology

Temporal and Spatial Dispersion
