Newcomer Adaptation in Teams: Multilevel Antecedents and Outcomes
基于65个项目团队的纵向多源数据,研究新人在团队中的适应过程,发现新人绩效随时间提升,初期授权、团队期望和团队绩效对新人初始表现和进步有不同预测作用,进而影响团队绩效和新人离职意向。
This study tested a multilevel model of newcomer adaptation in teams using longitudinal and multisource data from 65 project teams. Results indicated that newcomer performance improved over time, particularly early in socialization. Initial newcomer empowerment, team expectations, and team performance differently predicted newcomer initial performance and performance improvement. In turn, newcomer initial performance and performance improvement uniquely related to subsequent team performance, and newcomer initial performance related to subsequent newcomer empowerment and intentions to quit.
