          Abstract

          Resumo Há um aumento do reconhecimento por parte das organizações da necessidade de reestruturar o trabalho em torno de equipes, proporcionando oportunidades para os membros aprenderem com os colegas por meio do diálogo e discussão. Este estudo teve como objetivo definir e operacionalizar o clima para a aprendizagem grupal (CAG) como um preditor dos comportamentos de aprendizagem grupal. CAG foi definido e operacionalizado como uma variável latente de segunda ordem com sete dimensões, de modo a obter validade de conteúdo, convergente e discriminante. A hipótese foi testada a partir de uma amostra de 217 trabalhadores que atuam em equipe, em uma organização de desenvolvimento e treinamento para o uso de softwares. A modelagem de equações estruturais revelou que o CAG tem forte relação com os comportamentos de aprendizagem grupal. Assim, a promoção de um CAG requer que a equipe perceba que tem: apoio da gestão; tempo suficiente para realizar o trabalho e aprender; controle sobre eventos organizacionais, possiblidade de iniciar uma ação e tomar decisões; oportunidades de aprender com os especialistas; acesso fácil a informações e orientações escritas e sentimento geral de satisfação com o local de trabalho.

          Abstract There is increased recognition by the organizations of the need to restructure work around teams, thus providing opportunities for members to learn from colleagues through dialogue and discussion. In this study, our purpose was to define and to operationalize the group learning climate (GLC) as a predictor of the group learning behavior. We defined and operationalized GLC as a second order latent variable with seven dimensions, in order to obtain content validity, both convergent and discriminant. We tested this hypothesis with a sample of 217 workers who work as a team in an organization that develops software and provides training courses in software use. The structural equation modeling showed that the GLC has a strong correlation with the group learning behavior. Thus, the promotion of the GLC requires that the team realize that they have: management support; enough time to do the work and learn; control over organizational events; the possibility to initiate action and make decisions; opportunities to learn from experts; easy access to information and written guidelines, and a general feeling of satisfaction with the workplace.

              Enhancing the Effectiveness of Work Groups and Teams.

              Teams of people working together for a common purpose have been a centerpiece of human social organization ever since our ancient ancestors first banded together to hunt game, raise families, and defend their communities. Human history is largely a story of people working together in groups to explore, achieve, and conquer. Yet, the modern concept of work in large organizations that developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries is largely a tale of work as a collection of individual jobs. A variety of global forces unfolding over the last two decades, however, has pushed organizations worldwide to restructure work around teams, to enable more rapid, flexible, and adaptive responses to the unexpected. This shift in the structure of work has made team effectiveness a salient organizational concern. Teams touch our lives everyday and their effectiveness is important to well-being across a wide range of societal functions. There is over 50 years of psychological research-literally thousands of studies-focused on understanding and influencing the processes that underlie team effectiveness. Our goal in this monograph is to sift through this voluminous literature to identify what we know, what we think we know, and what we need to know to improve the effectiveness of work groups and teams. We begin by defining team effectiveness and establishing the conceptual underpinnings of our approach to understanding it. We then turn to our review, which concentrates primarily on topics that have well-developed theoretical and empirical foundations, to ensure that our conclusions and recommendations are on firm footing. Our review begins by focusing on cognitive, motivational/affective, and behavioral team processes-processes that enable team members to combine their resources to resolve task demands and, in so doing, be effective. We then turn our attention to identifying interventions, or "levers," that can shape or align team processes and thereby provide tools and applications that can improve team effectiveness. Topic-specific conclusions and recommendations are given throughout the review. There is a solid foundation for concluding that there is an emerging science of team effectiveness and that findings from this research foundation provide several means to improve team effectiveness. In the concluding section, we summarize our primary findings to highlight specific research, application, and policy recommendations for enhancing the effectiveness of work groups and teams.
