Analysis Of Team Trust Building Behaviors In Virtual Workplace Teams

Abstract

Teams are becoming increasingly vital to many organizations. Due to
globalization organizations have started to utilize virtual workplace teams.
Members of virtual workplace teams typically interact electronically however
they may occasionally meet face-to-face. It can be difficult for a virtual
workplace team to succeed due to anonymity, lack of control, lack of physical
proximity, inefficiencies in information technology and lack of trust. Trust is a
key factor in the success of a virtual workplace team. Trust is examined to
determine which trust building behavior is most effective at building virtual
workplace team trust.
