https://doi.org/10.18502/kss.v9i4.15085Abstract
Office digitization not only occurs in the aspect of using digital tools to facilitate the work of employees and office managers but also transfers all office activities to a virtual environment. This also invites the pros and cons. This study aims to provide an extensive bibliometric literature study on “virtual reality in office management”. The research articles were compiled from the Google Scholar database and the publishers Elsevier and Emerald. Of the 38 articles found in the database, from 2011 to 2021, 35 articles were analyzed in this study. The selected references were then managed using reference manager software, namely Zotero. After managing the database, the researcher performed classification and visualization using VOS viewer software. Overall, this literature study provides an appropriate reference point for further research on “virtual reality in office management.”
Keywords: bibliometric analysis, future office, office management, virtual reality
