Assessing your virtual team…a checklist

Brainstorming on stakeholder relationships is difficult enough without having to account for virtual team dynamics.  Understanding these is a fundamental to the new generation of virtual-team projects. Ken Thompson at www.bioteams.com (post here) has a nice checklist/approach, centered on eight dimensions of virtual teams:

Nature of Team Objective, Team Leadership/Management Style, Team Member Profile, Team Shape, Team Environment, Team Working Approach, Team Social Dynamic, Team Technology Factor

He’s included a mindmap –PDF only — that gives an example of how to use this approach (here).
