Promoting group potency in project teams: The importance of group identification
研究71个跨国项目团队,发现群体认同是培养集体效能感的关键,而促进相互依赖的群体目标有助于增强群体认同。
Abstract We examined the antecedents and consequences of group potency in 71 multinational project teams in the Greater China region. We extended the theoretical basis of group potency by employing group identification theory. Results showed that group identification was one of the key factors in developing group potency. Further, fostering the acceptance of group goals that are interdependent was important for increasing group identification. We discuss the implications of our findings for future research.
