Description
Systemic literature review:
The aim of this research is to identify the strengths and challenges of virtual working in the UK social work sector in order to develop mitigating strategies that can increase virtual team functioning in my organisation.
The objectives of this research are:
1. Explore the impact of moving from office-based to virtual teams
2. Identity the psychological impact of virtual working
3. Evaluate the psychological impact of virtual working in a social work context and explore how individuals cope with change in times of crisis
5. Develop recommendations and guidelines to support teams in the virtual context
At the time of writing the research proposal (June 2020) my plan was to do a combination of a literature review and reflective case study, however being a key worker I contracted covid 19 in the field and have since been diagnosed with long covid and have still not recovered months later. I am not firing on all cylinders and no longer able to do this dissertation.
