Tiivistelmä
The aim of this thesis is to explore the means by which team spirit is implemented/enhanced in an organization from the management level. The research of this thesis is important, because as the Western societies are moving more and more towards an information-based economy, the importance of team work has become timelier than ever before. Since the beginning of the 90’s, the companies have adapted team-based workshops in an increasing rate, and it has even been found that the most common attribute why managers give someone a promotion is because they are “team players”.
This thesis provides a practical approach as well as a theoretical framework for the implementation and enhancement of team spirit in an organization from management perspective. It starts with a preresearch with a purpose to establish a foundation for the main research, by providing evidences for the various positive impacts team spirit has on organizations, as well as deriving the antecedents of team spirit based on the frequency of their occurrence in the various literatures used for the purpose of this thesis. The antecedents are then further researched and elaborated in the main study, and their impacts, causalities as well as the measure by which they are implemented are unwrapped. Based on the research findings a priority of order of the antecedents are established and final theoretical framework is created.
The study is conceptual inductive qualitative research by its nature, and the research gap as well as the contribution of this study lies in the question HOW team spirit can be enhanced/implemented from management level in an organization. The study contributes to the subject of team spirit, not only by providing the means by which it is implemented, but also by providing a holistic approach for the research of team spirit by taking both the structural and social factors in consideration, as well as providing its own subjective perspective for what are the antecedents of team spirit.
