BUS 690 - Special Topics in Business: Managing Virtual Teams for E-Commerce

Global E-Commerce strategies and new technologies have created not only an electronic marketplace, but also a virtual workplace for many organizations. Employees and teams routinely collaborate from distant geographical locations, from home, at client sites, or anywhere around the globe. This course examines how to select technology that matches virtual teams’ tasks, attitudes, and experience, and demonstrate ways to manage the impact of culture on team performance, trust, and dynamics. Students will learn how to facilitate virtual team meetings, how to track team results, and how to intervene to solve typical team problems.
