IntroductionA virtual team refers to a collection of people who collaborate in geographically dispersed mediums. This group of people works across the boundaries of space, time and organization and are connected to each other via information and telecommunications technologies to achieve one or more organizational goals. Virtual teams require a new range of ways to work across boundaries across processes, systems, technology and people. This requires effective leadership to be successful. In the recent past, the growing number of knowledge-intensive research and development companies have turned to virtual teams in order to generate maximum competitive advantage from limited resources and manpower. Geographically distributed teams must communicate through technology, and this has grown in prevalence compared to traditional teams where all members were co-located and communicating face-to-face. So many organizations are turning to virtual teams to reduce operational costs, engage in faster problem resolution, and innovate. Virtual Team Formation The process of virtual team formation is very crucial and plays a significant role in the success of a virtual team, since team members can be trained from virtually anywhere. Therefore, the management of particular organizations must pay special attention to the formation of virtual teams. Lerner (2008), stated that leaders of distributed teams should have a heightened sense of awareness of various subgroup formations and their weaknesses.” Therefore, forming virtual teams is critical to ensuring that the goals of a given project are achieved and that team chemistry is adequate to achieve certain goals. Karayaz (2006) called the… center of the paper… each other on the same page, which often means redundant discussions and missed dialogues while waiting for everyone to get started. Another challenging thing is that virtual teaming typically lengthens the workday for virtual team members, and time zone dispersion narrows the window for synchronous team interaction. Multitasking is a common strategy in meetings that can distract members so much that they miss the opportunity to provide valuable input. Likewise, virtual team members' attention is often diluted by their local tasks and priorities. If local priorities override the time team members had planned to spend on tasks or team meetings, the loss of process can mean teamwork takes longer than expected, which is not so good for bonding. team, especially when there are team members who have done their homework well.
