Abstract: | Little research has been done on characteristics of successful self-managed work-group members, despite the fact that almost every major US corporation is considering implementing such teams. This study examined the relationship between the Big Five personality dimensions and self-efficacy for participating in self-managed work groups. A questionnaire was administered to 126 workers in a manufacturing organization that is planning the implementation of self-managed work groups. Results indicated that Neuroticism, Extraversion, Agreebleness, and Conscientiousness were significantly related to self-efficacy for participating in self-managed work groups. |
