Types and terminology of remote project teams

Purpose: to investigate significant changes that occurred in working conditions in the last centuries that led to the new models' formation of employee interaction at enterprises, especially remotely, such as remote, virtual, and dispersed project teams. This article aims to develop project management terminology. Findings: Clarification of the terminology of project management indicates the meaning of the term "remote team". This paper considered the term separation from several related concepts and demonstrated the benefits of integrating remote project teams within an enterprise. Originality/Value: Paper analyzes the term, features and differences of the remote project team from other types of remote teams. Further, the term remote project team can be used by project managers from a theoretical point of view. Future research can focus on the way to manage a remote project team effectively

Integrating Blockchain in Various Organizational Models Pave the Path to Sustainable Development Goals

Blockchain is considered one of the most significant technological advances integrated into the Business Process Management (BPM) systems of various organizations over the past decade. The introduction of blockchain technologies is changing the way traditional supply chains are managed. In this sense, blockchain technologies have the potential to revolutionize complex supply chains in stability, traceability, and accountability. Since Blockchain technology has fostered the development of trust between many different parties, not just leaders and followers, it is assumed that Blockchain will give its adapters revolutionary characteristics. Upon a systematic bibliometric review that determined the impact of introducing Blockchain technology into the BPM, on the basis of previous research and scientific papers published in academic journals, it was found that most of the studies highlight the significance of Blockchain and its impact on the supply chain and financial sectors. However, this article aims to identify new characteristics of Blockchain’s impact on the BPM in various other sectors, especially in the telecommunications, non-governmental organizations, industrial, and banking sectors. The statistical analysis of the collected data examines the intermediate variables of the introduction of Blockchain technology (trust, immutability, transparency, and cost reduction) and its impact on increasing sustainability (economic, ecological, and social resilience) as a dependent variable. As a result of the study, the authors concluded that Blockchain has the potential to enhance the revolutionary characteristics of trust, immutability, cost reduction, and reliability in a business process model, accelerating the path to achieving sustainable development
