Abstract
Virtual teaming systems (VTS) can provide your organization with new capabilities that will enhance its competitiveness. Our company, Ventana Corp., markets GroupSystems, the first virtual teaming system. The ideas behind GroupSystems came from years of rigorous academic research into the ways people collaborate. A VTS applies computing technology to team work, using automation to accelerate collaborative thinking, consensus building, decision making, and planning. It also provides the seed for a knowledge base of organizational expertise
