Virtual reality (VR) technology plays a significant role in this transition, with remote work as efficient as work performed from an organization's own office space. This book explores the impact of immersive VR technology on the new virtual workspace. Specifically, it examines how VR can enable employees to overcome the distractions associated with working from home, increase their visibility on team projects, build stronger relationships with co-workers, reduce feelings of isolation due to social distancing, and facilitate their engagement in collaborative work processes. It also explores the limitations of two-dimensional, computer-mediated communication tools for flexible working arrangements. It, thus, offers theoretical foundations for future research on office digitalization and subsequent applications of VR technology on office work. It also features the analysis of two dozen problem-centered expert interviews with creators and executives of leading productivity VR tools that enable the remote collaboration between knowledge workers. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Business,$x2191-5490 606 $aPersonnel management 606 $aVirtual reality 606 $aAugmented reality 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aBusiness information services 606 $aHuman Resource Management 606 $aVirtual and Augmented Reality 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 606 $aIT in Business 615 0$aPersonnel management. 615 0$aVirtual reality. 615 0$aAugmented reality. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aBusiness information services. 615 14$aHuman Resource Management. 615 24$aVirtual and Augmented Reality. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aIT in Business. 676 $a658.3123 676 $a331.2568028568 700 $aOrel$b Marko$f1986-$01860080 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910586585703321 996 $aCollaboration Potential in Virtual Reality (VR) Office Space$94464576 997 $aUNINA
