Virtual Team Successes and Stresses

A Case Study

8/8/2016

As widespread as diverse and dispersed teaming is these days, leading a virtual team can be a challenge. This case study offers ideas on making the best of diverse and dispersed team structures.

Virtual teaming, that is, working on teams whose members are not present in the same location, is a fact of our modern, globalized business world. Virtual (or diverse and dispersed) teams are prevalent not only in multinational companies with offices in different countries, but also in academic and non-governmental institutions with bases across the world. In such team structures, members often have to communicate and collaborate with others who could be thousands of miles and many time zones apart.

As widespread as diverse and dispersed teaming is these days, leading a virtual team can be a challenge. Team leaders need to not only account for practical matters such as scheduling across time zones, but also technical issues such as varying rates of connectivity and access to communication platforms. However, one of the biggest factors in creating successful collaboration among diverse and dispersed teams is culture – specifically, tailoring the team’s mission, plans and procedures to the preferences of the different cultures represented on the team.

The following is a case study provided by a Cultural Navigator subject matter expert in diverse and dispersed teaming:

“A virtual team leader named Rebecca, originally from the United States, recently led a virtual project team with members from Japan, Mexico, Germany, Korea and the US. Rebecca was focused on setting the team up for success, and although she deliberately used strategies and tools made available by her company, she learned some valuable lessons along the way.

“Before initiating the project with a kick-off meeting, Rebecca made sure that everyone filled out their Cultural Orientations Indicator (COI) assessment to get to know their own work-style preferences. She then invited all members into a team message board on the Cultural Navigator, and encouraged them to share their profiles to better understand each other’s work-style preferences.

“The team was not able to have a face-to-face kick-off meeting, so during their first virtual meeting, every team member took time to introduce him or herself. The members talked about the different preferences in their team using the non-judgmental vocabulary of the Cultural Orientations Approach. At the end of the call, the team agreed on some ground rules for their upcoming teleconference and then closed the call.

“As the project continued, the team leader noticed that key team members were regularly not sharing their sales pipelines during their calls as agreed upon. Rebecca used humor during their sessions to lighten the mood, thinking some of the team members were nervous. However, she noticed the same people began to skip the calls, and were reluctant to speak when they were in attendance.”

In the above case study, the team leader Rebecca had done her due diligence in preparing the team to accommodate different cultural preferences among its members. But then she hit a snag. What had she done wrong?

The subject matter expert offered this reading of the situation: “In retrospect, Rebecca realized that even though she had set ground rules, she could have had an individual talk with each member before finalizing the team structure and processes. Perhaps in those discussions she would have understood that Woo-jin, her Korean colleague, worked in a strict hierarchical office environment and had to clear most decisions with his direct supervisor before sending anything to her. Woo-jin had hoped his team leader realized he did not have this approval, however Rebecca was not aware of this.

Similarly, the Japanese team member named Kamiko was concerned about the strict data protection laws in Japan, so she did not feel comfortable sharing her sales pipeline information. Kamiko had tried to indirectly convey this limitation to Rebecca, who wasn’t able to understand this message.

As for Rebecca’s use of humor during teleconferences, she did not realize how many cultural references she was using in her jokes, which her colleagues from outside her own culture had little understanding of.”

In essence, while Rebecca began the team’s collaboration with most of the components necessary for success, throughout the project duration, she learned the hard way that cultural mishaps often stall even the best plan.

While cultural due diligence and careful preparation are necessary components of working with a virtual team, the team leader and members need to exercise cultural awareness and cultural competence all along the way.

Though there can be challenges to working in diverse and dispersed teams, they are a fact of modern work life. The good news is that, when managed well, virtual teams can be as effective and productive as their traditional equivalents.

Questions: I need new and unique answers, please. (Use your own words, don't copy and paste)

1. What did the team leader notice during the team meeting (calls) and what did she tried to do to enhance the situation?
2. What should Rebeca had to do for each virtual worker and why?
3. What were the special situations with the Korean and the Japanese workers?
4. What the virtual leaders and the virtual members need to exercise?

1. During the virtual meeting scheduled the team lead noticed that there were a few key members who were reluctant to speak about the sales data. She tried to solve it in her own way by trying to ease out the atmospshere by cracking jokes which in itself was not successful as it then translaed to folks altogether skippin the calls.

2. It was imperative that she had individual calls with each of the team members in her group. That would have helped her understand the ways of working of each of her team members and if there were any cultural differences and it would have been easier for indivuduals to let her know any challenges that would have been diffcult to share in a public forum.

3. While the korean workers followed a strict hierrachial office structure where they could not share any information without prior approval from their seniors the situation with Japanese was a tad different with strict data protection laws in place.

4. A team with a virtual leader and virtual members should at the very start etablish a process and protocol for their upcoming meetings. There should be a kick off session scheduled where each one of them has a brief understanding of the others present in the call. However what is more important for the leader is to schedule a call separately with each individual memebrs to understand their ways of working, any impending challenges they foresee around the agenda prescribed and grow his cultural awareness of each of the team members to avoid any unforeseen challenges as the meetings progress

I think that there is a very fine line between technology and human innovation. That fine line is when the technological innovation starts to harm humans. That is not the case here with Geraldine Hamilton’s organs on a chip. With this organ on a chip, there are no humans being hurt. She is using cells to try to stimulate accurate representations of a human body. She is doing this to try to help the world of medicine. Using these chips, she can test cures for certain diseases and even test medicine for specific people. Not all people are the same so she can take specific people’s cells and test if they would react in a fatal or non fatal way to a drug. She gives an example in her talk, when she explains how she had a headache and took an advil, then fifteen minutes later, she was rushed to an emergency room (Hamilton). This shows how differently people can react to different types of medicine. Using this technology could end up saving so many lives in the long run.

I think that human innovation is gradually becoming dependent on technology but for a good reason. Technology can do many things that humans cannot. We can program technology to do various different things that are more faster and efficient than we could do ourselves. We should use technology to our advantage, to help us improve ourselves and everyone around us. I think that it is a very powerful tool which can help us make the world a better place for everyone. An example is this organ on a chip technology that could potentially eliminate the need for animal testing which has so many ethical issues. Another example is when we use technology to give people prosthetic arms and legs to people who were born with none. I think that technology is an amazing thing, it is helping us make huge strides in medicine and beyond.

New-Project Analysis The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $1,160,000, and it would cost another $19,000 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class (the applicable MACRS depreciation rates are 33.33%, 44.45%, 14.81%, and 7.41%), and it would be sold after 3 years for $558,000. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $12,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $410,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 35%.
