• #14: RACHVirtual teams are governed essentially by the same fundamental principles as traditional teams. However, there is one critical difference. This difference is the way the team members communicate.��There are many challenges faced when communicating via both face to face and virtual. FACE TO FACEMany virtual meetings lack the cues we use in person such as tone of voice, body language,��facial��expression and other nonverbal cues that may indicate confusion, discomfort or disagreement. Therefore lead to possible miscommunication.Shared experiences, spontaneous conversations, the experience of personality nuances are much harder to come by, virtually.��VIRTUALFace-to-face meetings require individuals to be in the same place at the same time whereas virtual meetings reach across geographical boundaries.Save time and money - Face-to-face meetings and conferences can cost a great deal due to��travel expenses, accommodations, venue rental, and the packing and shipping of displays. According to Bloomberg Businessweek, a virtual meeting or teleconference can save 50 to 80 percent of the costs of a face-to-face meeting.Virtual communications can be far more effective and efficient than face-to-face communications as people tend to be more honest during as everything is happening by means of writing. Also, there is no room to make judgements based on appearances.
• #15: RACHOne of the biggest challenges of virtual teams is building and maintaining trust between the team members. Trust is critical for unblocking communication between members and sustaining motivation of each person involved. Trust and identity are two significant issues for efficient creation and operation of virtual teams. Identity plays a critical role in communication and yet, when spatial borders separate team members, identity is ambiguous. Managers of virtual teams need to pay much more attentions to maintaining clear goals, performance standards, and communication rules. People have varying assumptions on what to expect from each other. To avoid build-ups of misunderstandings, in a virtual organization it is critical to replace those implicit assumptions with clear rules and protocols that everyone understands and agrees upon, especially for communication. ��Not everyone can perform well in a virtual team environment. The members should be self motivated and able to work independently. They need to be able to keep working effectively without much of external control or structure.��Due to more limited communication channels, the success and effectiveness of virtual teams is much more sensitive to the type of project the group works on, what people are selected, and how the team is managed.
