The term "virtual teams" is particularly at home in the areas of digital transformation, HR work and teams as well as digital leadership. Virtual teams consist of people who work in different locations around the world but are connected to each other via the internet and digital tools. They don't have to be in the same office, but can work from home, from a café or even while travelling.
In such teams, various technologies such as video conferencing, team chat or online project management tools are usually used to work together on projects. Collaboration is flexible and enables companies to access talent from all over the world.
A simple example: A company from Germany wants to create a new website. A graphic designer from Spain, a programmer from Poland and a marketing expert from Austria work together on the project - each from their own location. They meet regularly in video meetings, exchange files online and coordinate via chat. This allows them to work together efficiently and from any location. Virtual teams offer many opportunities for companies, such as cost savings and a larger selection of specialists, but also require good communication and clear agreements to ensure that the collaboration works smoothly.
