Abstract

This article puts forward a thesis on the effectiveness of virtual organizations for profit, along with a preliminary test and discussion. In all likelihood, effectiveness is strongly influenced by ethical features stemming from universal values (see Damon, 2004; Küng, 2002; Seligman 2004). It is widely believed that the main problem in virtual organizations concerning ethics is reliability and its psychological equivalent—trust, both within the organization and among its electorate.
