What the paper says

This correlational, nonexperimental study examined the relationship between trust, knowledge-sharing, and performance in multinational virtual teams (MNVTs). Surveying 70 employees from a global tech firm, multiple regression analysis revealed that trust and knowledge-sharing accounted for 65.2% of the variance in team performance (R² = .652, F(2,68) = 65.714, p < .001). Findings suggest these variables are significant predictors of MNVT success. Without fostering a culture of trust and knowledge-sharing, global organizations risk team breakdowns. Promoting these factors enhances MNVT effectiveness and supports the strategic advantages of diverse, virtual collaboration.
