At the beginning of this course, we talked at length about personality, temperament, and individual psychological aspects of the members of teams. However, the aspect of culture is critical to understanding the manner in which people operate in organizations. In your posting, please discuss the following:
1. Define culture and describe how an individual’s culture impacts how individuals operate in an organizational environment.
2. Give a personal example from an organization with which you have worked on how individual culture has made an impact and how you have observed leaders and followers react.

Read this article on Virtual Teamwork competencies from a 2016 article in the Human Performance journal and in your post reflect on one competency the authors cover that you believe is essential based on your own experiences working virtually. Remember that you don’t have to be working across borders, you can conduct virtual teamwork in the same office building.
