Ferbrache, C. P. (2009). Virtual team leader emergence: A model to objectively measure leader emergence (Doctoral dissertation, California State University, Fresno).This dissertation focuses on leader emergence in virtual teams. The author discusses the formal and informal processes of virtual team leadership development, aiming for the emergence of an objective model or means of creating reliable, effective virtual teams. Ultimately, this research addresses a gap in the literature related to leadership within the virtual team setting. Due to the unique characteristics and processes defining virtual teams, the same leadership theories and models that work for face-to-face teams may not be applicable to the virtual team. Although preliminary, this research is also instrumental in that the author provides a quantitative method to predict leader emergence, thereby improving the capacity of virtual teams to flourish. One of the main findings is that in virtual teams, leaders emerge through organic processes, linked possibly to personality traits even more so than team dynamics. The informal process of leadership emergence in virtual teams can prove problematic.
As a dissertation, this research is potentially limited in scope but can be used as a springboard for future research, including my own. The small and limited sample constrains the generalizability of the results, but still calls attention to the need for further empirical research. Virtual teams are becoming normative, necessitating the use of models like those developed through the results of this research. I will carefully review the methods and implications of this dissertation and apply the fundamental approach to my own work.
