Aim of the paper – create virtual team management model integrated across different project phases, which was defined based on virtual team structural models and respective project stages. Paper objectives: 1) Provide conception of virtual teams based on various scientific interpretations. 2) Analyze the concepts of project management and team development theories applicability in virtual environments. 3) Create a virtual team management model according to the project phases and structure models of virtual teams. 4) Create the process of virtual team development during the lifecycle of the project based on the study results. Study methods. Scientific literature comparative analysis methods were used while analysing project management, concepts and structure of virtual teams. Experimental initial research had been conducted in a structured interview, questionnaire survey. The obtained results were processed using a mathematical analysis method (mode, median, mean, percentage expression) while processing the data with Microsoft Excel software. Synthesis method was used in order to formulate and structure the findings. Result. The paper has examined the structure of virtual teams and project management phases. Accordingly, theoretical virtual project team management model was created. Virtual team development process was designed based on this theoretical model and the results obtained in the study. This model is based on the human resources that affect the entire project life cycle and development of virtual team within five components: client, project manager, technical designer, specialists, and (local) resource managers. |
