This book comes at a time when virtual organizations (VO), are
proliferating exponentially due to the twin catalysts of
globalization and technological enablement. It provides conceptual
frameworks and simple tools for identifying and addressing the
complexities of managing geographically dispersed, virtually linked
organizations, which may have grown organically or inorganically
into a potpourri of multiple cultures, capabilities and practices.
These can help to scientifically assess the impact of
virtualization, balance the physical with the virtual and manage
risks using early indicators. The book provides mechanisms to
recognize, localize, measure and address vulnerabilities. Ensuring
knowledge transfer effectiveness (KTE) is vital in VOs. A
diagnostic tool has been evolved to measure KTE, isolate problems
and weak links and plan effective interventions. A set of critical
factors to increase the probability of success of globalization
strategies have been identified. This book interleaves theory with
practice and provides insights drawn from conversations with
business leaders, exploratory surveys, and in-depth research using
a large sample. The solid methodological underpinnings serve as a
useful template for researchers, while the models can be
contextualized to suit any organization. Foreword by Mr. Ajit
Balakrishnan, Chairman and CEO, Rediff.com; Chairman, Board of
Governors, Indian Institute of Management Calcutta.
