Abstract

This chapter develops your global leadership and English language management skills for best-practice virtual team collaboration. Global leadership is essential to those global virtual teams which are characterized by worldwide dispersion and cross-national cultural diversity and cannot meet in person. They therefore require specific, culturally-sensitive leadership practices that overcome the limitations of their extensive usage of Information and Communications Technologies. The English language is the collaborative means of various types of teams. If mismanaged, the English language distorts competency and position power, results in language closures and obstructs team-development, and you will learn how to prevent negative and leverage positive English-language effects.
