Purpose

This assignment gives you an opportunity to investigate trends in a topic related to virtual and global teams. You must complete this assignment individually, without contacting other students, and you may not use a paper or any part of a paper from a previous class or from another person. If you have any questions about this assignment, please post them in the Ask the Professor discussion forum so that everyone can benefit from the answers. This assignment addresses Course Objectives 3, 4, and 5.

Task

Pick a topic related to virtual and global teams that interests you and explore it further in 6-8 pages. Sample topics: use of technology among virtual teams; team-based rewards and recognition programs; characteristics of effective leaders of virtual teams; use of virtual teams in global corporations; theories of virtual team development. Identify and discuss the trends in your chosen topic area.

Support your opinions and statements with a minimum of five references from sources published within the last ten years and integrate appropriate concepts and theories from our work over the semester. You can cite scholarly and practitioner-oriented journals, newspaper articles, and YouTube videos about the topic, but not Wikipedia, consulting company websites, or other non-academic sources. Please use the UMGC library to conduct a search for appropriate sources of information. You can access the library through the Resources section of our classroom (on the ribbon above the course title banner) or directly at https://libguides.umgc.edu/home . Librarians are available by phone, email, and chat; they can help you narrow your topic, create a search strategy, and identify appropriate sources.
