The antecedents and outcomes of team job crafting

doi:10.3724/SP.J.1042.2020.00390

Abstract

Abstract:

Team job crafting is critical for team effectiveness. Based on job design theory and team dynamic model, we develop a theoretical model about the antecedents and consequences of team job crafting, and aim to establish the nomological network of team job crafting. First, we clarify the conceptualization and measurement of team job crafting. We then propose a multilevel model that elucidates how factors such as leadership, job characteristics, team personality composition, and human resource management system influence team job crafting via team proactive motivation. Last, we explain the effect of team job crafting on team effectiveness and the underlying mechanisms.

Key words: team job crafting, team proactive motivation, team effectiveness, job design
