Challenges and barriers in virtual teams: a literature review (2020, background): “, theoretical divisions within a group that create subgroups) which damage team collaboration [47, 210].”
Global organizational communities of practice: The effects of nationality diversity, psychological safety, and media richness on community performance (2013, background): “…in the countries in which they were born.4 However, in samples in which the majority of members work and reside in countries other than their birth country, assessing physical location and geographic dispersion will likely be more critical (Cramton and Hinds, 2005; O’Leary and Cummings, 2007).”
Group Faultlines (2012, background): “Differences in geographic location not only create communication challenges but also result in differences in assumptions, preferences, cultures, information access, and constraints (Cramton & Hinds, 2005; Gokakkar, 2007; Zimmermann, 2011).”
The faultline activation process and the effects of activated faultlines on coalition formation, conflict, and group outcomes (2010, background): “Faultline subgroups are based on demographic alignments that divide groups; for instance, into male and female subgroups (Lau & Murnighan, 1998) or even based on location (Cramton & Hinds, 2005; O’Leary & Mortensen, 2008; Polzer, Crisp, Jarvenpaa, & Kim, 2006).”
Go (Con)figure: Subgroups, Imbalance, and Isolates in Geographically Dispersed Teams (2009, unknown): “She concluded with a call for more research on subgroup dynamics due to the reality that most dispersed teams include collocated subgroups.”
Virtual Teams Research (2015, background): “While theoretical work has discussed the implications of subgroups in VTs (e.g., Cramton & Hinds, 2005), empirical work has not yet picked up this lead.”
