Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2014 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Paderborn (International Business), language: English, abstract: The change from traditional teamwork, with team members facing each other face to face in a room, to virtual collaborations, with members working over distance and time, is a phenomenon often mentioned and extensively addressed in specialist literature. More than 10 years ago, Deborah L. Duarte and Nancy Tennant Snyder noted that newly developed communication technologies at the time and increasing globalization, which radicalized networking among companies, created the basis for virtual teamwork. More current works show that virtual teams have now become indispensable in almost every company. In 2013, for example, Sonja App even speaks of a revolution in the world of work, which, brought about by the newly emerged media, has created new forms of collaboration. The structure of this paper entitled "Collaboration in virtual teams - a practical analysis" can be divided into three parts. It begins with two theoretical sections that form the basis for the practical analysis found in the third part.
