Virtual Global Teams
Fast Company Now points to a study on Global Teams. Here's Ross Mayfield's take on the post - Productivity in far-flung teams :
"University of North Carolina professor of information and technology management Arvind Malhotra studied 54 global virtual teams in 31 companies, from Intel to Royal Dutch Shell, with a suprising finding:

"They make decisions faster with more input from others and develop policies that are implemented worldwide with fewer problems than conventional teams," said Malhotra.
