Abstract

Globalization of the
economy and the technological revolution has led to increased reliance
on teams with geographically distributed membership, which has increased
multiculturalism in the workplace. This study identifies factors that
affect the processes and performance of nationally and culturally
diverse teams working in a virtual environment. A systematic review of
the literature was conducted to identify previous empirical studies in
global virtual team research published from 1998 to 2014, focusing on
the effects of deep diversity in the form of national culture on
multinational virtual teams (MNVTs). Sixty of the 268 articles met our
criteria for inclusion in this study. We concentrated on the critical
factors regarding processes and outcomes in MNVTs. The resulting
framework included four socioemotional and four task-related challenges
for team leaders to focus on. We found that dynamic interdependency
among socioemotional and task process factors affects MNVT performance. ©

Abstract

This article
introduces a new conceptual model that adds to the previous intragroup
conflict model by introducing a new construct—cognition conflict. In
addition, it provides the defining characteristics for this new
construct and presents how cognition conflict should be incorporated
into the intragroup conflict literature. This conceptual review
addresses the call to researchers from Song, Dyer, and Thieme (2006) by
presenting cognition conflict as a new intragroup conflict construct. ©
