Question
Which of the following may be considered as a disadvantage of a virtual organisation?
A. May lack culture
B. Has no physical hub
C. Has no centre of operations
D. May use part-time workers
E. May use self-employed individuals
Answer
A. May lack culture
Explanation:
Virtual organisations, due to their dispersed and remote nature, often struggle with establishing a unified corporate culture. This can lead to challenges in team cohesion, communication, and overall organisational identity. While other options describe characteristics of virtual organisations, lacking culture is specifically a disadvantage as it impacts the organisation’s ability to foster a sense of belonging and shared values among its members.
