Abstract
Effective teamwork has grown to be one of the most important aspects of any organization to enhance its performance and success in today’s highly competitive global business environment. As a result, business programs are including teamwork as part of their curricula; and higher business education accrediting agencies have identified teamwork as one of key student learning outcomes. This paper identifies strategies for incorporating teamwork as part of developing effective teamwork pedagogy in online graduate business courses. Building on the work by Tuckman (1965) and Matthews and McLees (2015), this paper discusses a pedagogical approach to teamwork that is organized around the four steps of successful group process, namely forming, storming, norming, and performing, and how to develop team leadership skills for each of these in a virtual learning environment. Empirical data from a case study provides statistical evidence that supports our recommendations
