PRACHT, Sarah Antonia
This master thesis examines transnational virtual team collaboration using the example of the global programme "Soil protection and rehabilitation for food security" implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ). Using the virtual collaborative team spread across 8 countries, the impact of the introduction of Microsoft Teams, a collaboration software, was studied. Qualitative guided interviews were used to collect data that provided information on various aspects of transnational team collaboration such as communication, trust, identification, or satisfaction. Subsequently, a qualitative content analysis was used to evaluate the data, which led to the conclusion that Microsoft Teams improved transnational collaboration in many respects according to the interviewees' perceptions. Nevertheless, aspects that could be improved in the context of transnational virtual collaboration with MS Teams in the global programme were also identified.

Virtual Team Management
Slavický, Marek ; Tureckiová, Michaela (advisor) ; Kopecký, Martin (referee)
Nowadays, virtual teams are a new and a rapidly growing phenomenon within our globalizing world. Their number and effectivity quickly increases thanks to the quality of accessible technology. From the theoretical aspect, virtual teams are just being analyzed and processed, and given the recency and constant changes, they are not yet clearly understood and interpreted. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to outline basic characteristics of virtual teams and their differences from conventional work teams and focus on the issue of virtual team management. Therefore, I will further analyze the key factors to virtual team functioning, among which we can include modern communication technologies, the issue of communication over distance and trust. I will also describe strongly dispersed virtual teams, which must deal with multiculturality and other concerns associated with distinct cultural values of individual team members. The last chapter will cover conflict resolution, which is a key point especially within the topic of virtual teams.

Analysis of Hosted Applications for Support of Virtual Teamwork
Král, Roman ; Kunstová, Renáta (advisor) ; Štefaňák, Vladislav (referee)
The focus of this thesis is to analyze how online hosted applications available free of charge can be used to support work in virtual teams. The objectives are first to characterize virtual teams and groupware applications, and then to analyze the scope and functionality of available applications including more detailed evaluation and comparison of certain selected applications (which also support collaborative document creation). Key factors that need to be considered when choosing applications for virtual teams are identified along with other characteristics of virtual teams and team processes. A brief outline of the characteristic features of groupware applications and the SaaS model is followed by comprehensive analysis of various categories of available applications and their functionality. This analysis includes recommendations regarding the suitability of different applications for specific teams and situations. Services offered by suppliers of more complex sets of applications, which include applications supporting collaborative document creation, are analyzed and compared in greater detail. Some of these sets are recommended as a suitable foundation for complex support of the work of a virtual team. The whole analysis is closed by an illustrative case scenario, which can be used as an educational tool to enable people to get to know the basic principles of virtual teamwork and of some of the applications analyzed in this thesis.
