Working Together Apart : Collaboration over the Internet Paperback / softback
by Judith S. Olson, Gary M. Olson
Part of the Synthesis Lectures on Human-Centered Informatics series
Paperback / softback
Description
Increasingly, teams are working together when they are not in the same location, even though there are many challenges to doing so successfully.
Here we review the latest insights into these matters, guided by a framework that we have developed during two decades of research on this topic. This framework organizes a series of factors that we have found to differentiate between successful and unsuccessful distributed collaborations.
We then review the kinds of technology options that are available today, focusing more on types of technologies rather than specific instances.
We describe a database of geographically distributed projects we have studied and introduce the Collaboration Success Wizard, an online tool for assessing past, present, or planned distributed collaborations.
We close with a set of recommendations for individuals, managers, and those higher in the organizations who wish to support distance work.
