Article
Despite tremendous progress toward understanding trust within teams, research has predominately conceptualized team trust as a shared group construct, focusing almost exclusively on trust magnitude (i.e., mean level of trust) while ignoring trust dispersion (i.e., within-team differences in trust). As a result, we know little about this critical pr...

Hierarchy has the potential to both benefit and harm team effectiveness. In this article, we meta-analytically investigate different explanations for why and when hierarchy helps or hurts team effectiveness, drawing on results from 54 prior studies (N = 13,914 teams). Our findings show that, on net, hierarchy negatively impacts team effectiveness (...

Cumulating evidence from 112 independent studies (N = 7,763 teams), we meta-analytically examine the fundamental questions of whether intrateam trust is positively related to team performance, and the conditions under which it is particularly important. We address these questions by analyzing the overall trust-performance relationship, assessing th...

This chapter contributes to defining a common research agenda on organizational trust, first by content-analyzing scholarly recommendations for future research published between 2007 and 2011 across 347 articles and 58 social science journals, and second by reviewing the latest developments in trust research published between 2012 and 2015 across 1...

Cumulating evidence from 123 independent studies (N=8,452 teams), we meta-analytically examine the fundamental question of whether intrateam trust is systematically related to team performance, and the conditions under which it is particularly important. We propose and test a comprehensive framework encompassing seven contingency factors and four q...
Article
Full-text available
Over the past decades, several research streams have been focusing on the influence of status hierarchies on team performance. Synthesizing these research streams is argued to be an important next step in increasing our understanding of the status hierarchy – team performance relationship (Greer, Schouten, De Jong, & Dannals, 2015). In this paper,...
Article
In this study, we investigate how passion diversity affects the performance of entrepreneurial teams. We propose a model in which different diversity dimensions of passion, separation and variety, bring about distinct effects on entrepreneurial team performance. Drawing on a unique data set composed of longitudinal archival and survey data collecte...
Article
Full-text available
Integrating theorizing on situational strength and complementarity with control theory, we investigate the mediating processes that transmit peer control combination effects to team performance. We argue that two critical peer control mechanisms—norm strength and peer pressure—complement each other such that their joint impact on team members becom...
Article
Full-text available
In this study, we investigate how trust affects the performance of ongoing teams. We propose a multiple mediator model in which different team processes act as mediating mechanisms that transmit the positive effects of trust to team performance. Drawing on a data set of ongoing tax consulting teams, we found support for the mediated effects of trus...
Article
Despite the progress that the field has made on interpersonal trust in organizations, the extant research is limited in its focus on only one party within a dyadic relationship and on only one work relationship and referent at a time. In this symposium, we showcase emerging research that can expand our knowledge of interpersonal trust by adopting a...

Reports an error in "Beyond shared perceptions of trust and monitoring in teams: Implications of asymmetry and dissensus" by Bart A. De Jong and Kurt T. Dirks (Journal of Applied Psychology, 2012[Mar], Vol 97[2], 391-406). The subscript under Table 7 should have stated that the significance tests were one-tailed, just like the tests summarized in T...
Article
Full-text available
Aiming to integrate the scant literature and resolve mixed findings from prior research, this study advances a comprehensive integrative model of the relationship between trust and team effectiveness, involving different types of moderators (trust, team and outcome characteristics) and mediators. This model is tested meta-analytically on data from...
Article
Full-text available
Past research has implicitly assumed that only mean levels of trust and monitoring in teams are critical for explaining their interrelations and their relationships with team performance. In this article, the authors argue that it is equally important to consider the dispersion in trust and monitoring that exists within teams. The authors introduce...
Article
The article reports on the impact of peer control on the performance of self-managing teams in the workplace. Organizational control is imperative to the success of an organization and peer control is an informal form of control in organizations lacking employees with formal control over one another. Peer control often stems from a combination of p...
Article
This study examined the development and dynamics of trust in project teams and explored the relation with cooperation, monitoring and team performance. Two types of teams were distinguished at the start of the projects: low prior social-capital teams (teams composed of members that have no previous history in working together and are not acquainted...
Article
This longitudinal study aimed to explain performance differences of knowledge intensive project teams. Team level data gathered at three measurement moments were used. Antecedents of performance studied were: trust in team members, trust in supervisors, monitoring by team members and monitoring by supervisors. Heedful interrelating, a concept devel...
Article
Full-text available
The article discusses the effects of trust on team performance in the workplace. The article concerns itself with how trust affects teams and in what performance dimensions. Teamwork behaviors are viewed as potential mechanisms that facilitate trust. As a development of caring for others, trust exerts pressure on individual members to comply to gro...
