Dear PMI Chapter member,
I am seeking your help on research into the structure of virtual teams. I would greatly appreciate if you would complete a survey for this research
The purpose of this survey is to conduct an empirical analysis of the structure of virtual teams. The aim is to identify forms of virtual teams and to examine their characteristics.
The research is one of the 2013 Project Management Institute (PMI) academic research grant recipients .It is also part of doctoral research being conducted by Padhraic Ludden and supervised by Dr Ann Ledwith, with the Engineering Research Centre, University of Limerick, Ireland. The survey is being distributed to selected PMI chapter members worldwide.
The survey will ask questions on the characteristics of virtual teams – number of team members and team locations, time dispersion, geographic dispersion, cultural diversity, social conditions, political power, team membership, task complexity and communication technology.
For the purpose of the survey, you as the responder are asked to answer the questions, from the point of view of the most recently completed project that you worked on which involved a virtual team. In the context of this survey, a virtual team is a team where all the team members are not located together in the same work location.
The survey was pilot tested and the average time taken to complete was 15-20 minutes.
