20.500.12556/DKUM-94253 Having each other’s back the mediating role of supportive behaviours in the relationship between team autonomy and team effectiveness Imeti drug drugega v mislih posredovalna vloga podpornih vedenj v odnosu med avtonomijo in učinkovitostjo tima Background and Purpose: Incorporating autonomy in teams has been an increasingly popular practice, but the mechanisms that make autonomous teams effective still need to be completely understood. Adopting a multidimensional approach to team effectiveness, the aim of this study was to analyse the mediating role of team members’ supportive behaviours in the relationship between team autonomy and team effectiveness (team performance, team viability, quality of group experience and team process improvement). Methods: This research adopts a group-level analysis with a sample of 90 teams of 40 organisations from different sectors. Regression analysis was used to analyse the data, namely the product of the coefficients method. Results: A positive relationship between team autonomy and supportive behaviours, which, in turn, is positively related to the four criteria of team effectiveness, was found, suggesting that supportive behaviours are a team process that explains the relationship between team autonomy and team effectiveness. Conclusion: This research enriches our knowledge of the antecedents of team effectiveness and explains the mechanisms through which team autonomy relates to team effectiveness, encouraging organisations to incorporate autonomy into teams’ design to enhance supportive behaviours and team effectiveness. Ozadje in namen: Vključevanje avtonomije v time je vse bolj priljubljena praksa, vendar je treba še popolnoma razumeti mehanizme, ki naredijo avtonomne time učinkovite. Z uporabo večdimenzionalnega pristopa k učinkovitosti timov je bil cilj te študije analizirati posredovalno vlogo podpornih vedenj članov timov v odnosu med avtonomijo in učinkovitostjo timov (učinkovitost timov, sposobnost preživetja timov, kakovost skupinske izkušnje in izboljšanje procesa timov). Metoda: V vzorec je bilo vzetih 90 timov iz 40 organizacij iz različnih sektorjev. Za analizo podatkov je bila uporabljena regresijska analiza, in sicer metoda produkta koeficientov. Rezultati: Ugotovljena je bila pozitivna povezava med avtonomijo timov in podpornimi vedenji, ki so po drugi strani pozitivno povezani s štirimi merili učinkovitosti timov, kar nakazuje, da so podporna vedenja proces ekipe, ki pojasnjuje razmerje med avtonomijo in učinkovitostjo timov. Zaključek: Raziskava obogati naše znanje o učinkovitosti timov in pojasnjuje mehanizme, preko katerih se avtonomija timov nanaša na njihovo učinkovitost, kar spodbuja organizacije, da vključijo avtonomijo v oblikovanje ekip, da bi izboljšale podporna vedenja in učinkovitost ekipe. work teams team autonomy team effectiveness supportive behaviours quality of group experience team performance delovni timi avtonomija timov učinkovitost timov podporna vedenja kakovost skupinske izkušnje uspešnost timov true true true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2025-08-11 13:26:39 2025-08-11 13:26:39 2025-08-12 03:14:37 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 str. 87-98 issue 1 Vol. 57 2024 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2024-01-01 005.64 245369859 10.2478/orga-2024-0006 1318-5454 https://organizacija.fov.um.si/sl/stevilke/let-57-st-1-2024/ 1 0c95cc4b-76a6-11f0-a31f-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195074 RAZ_Alexandrino_Joana_2024.pdf RAZ_Alexandrino_Joana_2024.pdf 1 3CC294B3BB87A6089B59E4A11A823DCF 294d4bbf6bc5eda420246156d5f70c98b007e32cde2b2fd74e2a8ef62ecbd169 60d5265c-76a6-11f0-a31f-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195075 Fakulteta za organizacijske vede Organizacija 0 0 0
