Perceived faultline in virtual teams: The impact of norms of technology use

As virtual teams are naturally distributed and diverse, they are susceptible to faultline, causing teams fracturing into subgroups.The current works examining perceived faultline have mostly concentrated on collocated teams.Examining these phenomena in virtual teams deserves more attention due to t...
