Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Technological Aspects of Virtual Organizations
Alea M. Fairchild · 2004
48/100
👎 Skip It
A 2004 academic textbook on virtual organizations and business-IT alignment, this fills a real curriculum gap but its audience is narrow and its content has aged significantly in the two decades since publication. The technology landscape it describes has been transformed so completely that most practical guidance no longer applies. Worth tracking down only if you are researching early-2000s organizational theory for historical purposes.
