    In
    spite of the increasing demand for virtual cooperation, still
    relatively little is known about the knowledge, skills, abilities, and
    other characteristics (KSAOs) individuals need for virtual teamwork.
    Thus, the current paper aims at synthesizing the existing literature
    into a comprehensive model of virtual teamwork KSAOs. To this end, we
    review (a) existing frameworks of KSAO requirements for virtual
    teamwork, (b) challenges posed by different facets of virtuality, and
    (c) KSAOs particularly relevant for meeting the identified challenges.
    The results of this review are integrated into a holistic model of
    virtual teamwork KSAOs with distal characteristics (personality,
    experience) and more proximal qualities (knowledge, skills, and
    motivation). Research gaps as well as avenues for future research will
    be outlined and applications for virtual team staffing and training will
    be discussed.
