Stoga, kod formiranja uspešnih virtualnih timova posebnu pažnju treba pokloniti odabiru njihovih članova od kojih u velikoj meri zavisi efikasnost u ispunjavanju projektnih zadataka. Procena kompetencija ima izuzetan značaj kod dobijanja uvida u kapacitete zaposlenih, njihove potencijale i ograničenjima radi što preciznijeg predviđanja njihovog individualnog uspeha ili timskog uspeh. Medjutim, bez kompetentnih menadžera koji upravljaju i razvijaju virtuelne timove ne može da se zamisli ceo koncept. U skladu s tim, glavni cilj ovog rada je da utvrdi koje su ključne kompetencije članova virtuelnih timova, kao i njihovih menadžera koje determinišu uspešnost u poslovanju virtuelnih organizacija. Za utvrdjivanje ključnih kompetencija virtuelnih timova s jedne strane i kompetencija njihovih menadžera s druge, korišćen je pregled literature kao i najnovija istraživanja u ovom domenu. U radu se zaključuje da kompetentni menadžeri treba da koriste širok spektar novih, tehnološki podržanih opcija u formulisanju svojih strategija u cilju izlaženja u susret promenama, umesto samo reagovanja na njih. Takodje, autori navode da se na brojnim primerima u Evropi pokazuje komparativna prednost u implementaciji novih tehnologija od strane zaposlenih sa IT obrazovanjem, jer ih oni usvajaju kao nove ideje brže od drugih. Abstract: Virtual teams work in conditions of great uncertainty and specific requirements of the virtual environment. Therefore, when establishing successful virtual teams, special attention should be paid to the selection of their members, which largely influences the efficiency in fulfilling the project tasks. Assessment of competencies is of great importance in gaining insights into staff capacities, their potentials and limitations to predict their individual success or team success better. However, without competent managers who manage and develop virtual teams, one cannot imagine the whole concept. Accordingly, the main goal of this paper is to determine the key competencies of virtual team members, as well as their managers who determine performance of virtual organizations. In order to determine the key competencies of virtual teams on the one hand and the competencies of their managers on the other, the literature review and the latest research in this domain were used. The paper concludes that competent managers should use a wide range of new, technologically-supported options in formulating their strategies with the aim to respond to changes rather than just reacting to them. Also, the authors state that many examples in Europe show a comparative advantage in the implementation of new technologies by employees. Implementation of information technology in education helps managers to accept new ideas faster than others
