N2 - Virtual project management in global organizations is both challenging and important. Being able to identify and apply best practices is an essential skill, as is an understanding of how to leverage the right technology for communication and information sharing. Based on a typology of virtual projects, and using the theoretical frame of patterns, we propose an integrative way of identifying and applying best practices for the management of virtual projects. We present an assessment approach that allows managers to determine the nature of their virtual projects and discover and apply patterns for managing them.
