Abstract:
Acknowledging the increased importance of virtual teams in the context of Industry 4.0 and recently in COVID-19 pandemic, this study identifies and addresses several knowledge gaps regarding the development of an effective transaction memory system (TMS), and the influence of its components on teams knowledge sharing and creativity. The results confirm - with one exception, the positive role of communication frequency and quality in the emergence of TMS components; only the relationship between communication frequency and specialization being non-significant. On the other hand, TMS components have a positive impact on knowledge sharing and teams creativity. These findings are interpreted and explained considering the specific context of virtual projects, leading to several theoretical and managerial implications regarding knowledge management and creativity in virtual teams.
