The virtual form of organisation is the answer for turbulent and highly competitive environment and rising demands of customers. However, the theory of virtual organisation (VO) is still evolving and being systematized, similarly to its practice.

The article explores the cultural determinants of VO and provides the examples of Swedish and American culture.
