Abstract

This study draws on goal orientation theory and proposes the team learning goal orientation as an antecedent of team creativity. In addition, an Input-Process-Output (IPO) model was adopted, in which the team reflexivity, team efficacy, and positive group affective tone (PGAT) are linking mechanisms in the relationship between team learning goal orientation and team creativity. Using 57 teams from three lectures of the college, hierarchical regression analysis was conducted at the team level. The results showed that the team learning goal orientation had positive associations with team creativity, team reflexivity, and team efficacy. In addition, team reflexivity and team efficacy positively predicted the team creativity. Furthermore, the relationship between team learning goal orientation and team creativity was mediated by the team reflexivity and team efficacy. In contrast to predictions, PGAT did not show significant relations with both team learning goal orientation and team creativity. In conclusion, this study integrated the team-learning goal orientation and team creativity literature and contributes to the understanding of team reflexivity as a cognitive process and team efficacy as a motivational process between the team property and team creativity. These results have practical implications for managing teams.

급격한 환경변화에 속에서 창의성이 조직 생존을 위한 경쟁우위 요인으로 강조된 이 후, 많은 학자들은 어떻게 하면 창의성을 향상시킬 수 있는지에 대해 관심을 가져왔다. 수많은 조직들이 효율적인 업무처리를 위해 팀 제를 도입하고 있는 현 상황에서 팀 창의성에 대한 관심 역시 증가하는 추세이다. 본 논문에서는 팀 창의성에 대한 이해를 목표로 팀 학습목표 지향성을 선행요인으로 고려한다. 특히, 팀 학습목표 지향성과 팀 창의성 사이의 관계를 설명하는 서로 다른 팀 프로세스(예, 팀 성찰, 팀 효능감, 긍정적 집단 정서 분위기(PGAT: Positive Group Affective Tone, 이하 PGAT))를 밝히는데 목적을 둔다. 본 연구의 분석 자료를 수집하기 위해 서울소재의 한 경영대학에서 개설하는 세 개의 경영학 전공 강좌의 수강생 187명(57개 팀)을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 위계적 회귀분석을 방법을 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 팀 학습목표 지향성은 팀 창의성과 정(+)적으로 관련하는 것으로 나타났으며, 팀 성찰과 팀 효능감을 정(+)적으로 예측하였다. 또한, 팀 성찰과 팀 효능감은 팀 창의적 성과를 유의미하게 예측하였으며, 동시에 팀 학습목표 목표 지향성과 팀 창의성 사이를 매개하는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 하지만, 예측과 달리 PGAT는 팀 학습목표 지향성과 팀 창의성과는 통계적으로 관련성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 본 연구 결과는 다양한 이론적, 실무적 시사점을 가진다.
