Virtual Software Organization
A virtual organization or company is one whose members are geographically apart, usually working by e-mail, groupware, tele-conference while appearing to others to be a single, unified organization with a real physical location.
Virtual organization requires a different way of perceiving the world by those who wish to participate in it. There are four key characteristics of virtual organization as process.
First, virtual organization entails the development of relationships with a broad range of potential partners, each having a particular competency that complements the others.
Second, virtual organizing capitalizes on the mobility and responsiveness of telecommunications to overcome problems of distance.
Third, timing is a key aspect of relationships, with actors using responsiveness and availability to decide between alternatives.
Last, there must be trust between actors separated in space for virtual organization to be effective.
