Analyzing Successful Rate of Attack in Volleyball according to Team Performance Quality and the Number of Blockers

This study aims at investigating the effect of transformational leadership and shared leadership on dimensions of team effectiveness and the mediating role of teamwork orientation. The data were collected from members of working teams in companies of different fields in Vietnam. The results show that both transformational leadership and shared leadership are significantly associated to team effectiveness including team performance, quality of team experience, and team viability. The effects of transformational leadership are more robust compared to those of shared leadership while both leadership styles are dramatically relevant to team viability. In addition, teamwork orientation serves as a significant partial mediator in the relationship between transformational leadership, shared leadership, and dimensions of team effectiveness. The study is an early research in evaluating the effect of transformational leadership and shared leadership on three dimensions of team effectiveness, namely team performance, quality of team experience, and team viability. It is also the very first to explore the mediating role of teamwork orientation in the effect of leadership approaches on components of team effectiveness. The study offers interesting empirical evidence of an under-researched Asian emerging economy – Vietnam – so providing practical implications for companies in Vietnamese context in particular and similar Asian economies.

Television Ratings

This study investigated the determinants of television viewership and its relation to broadcasters’ choices of matches for live telecasts. Also, factors driving the broadcasters’ choices were examined. A panel data set from the 2018 Korea Baseball Organization league pennant race was analyzed. Broadcasters’ choice order of matches and the actual television ratings of each match were regressed on a series of antecedent factors related to the game characteristics and audience preferences. It was found that the broadcasters’ choice order of matches positively affected the television ratings, suggesting that the broadcasters’ decisions were well reflected in the actual viewership. It also appeared that broadcasters’ choices were based on popularity and team performance/quality, whereas viewers showed preference for current games’ on-field performance. There was no evidence of audience preference for games with higher outcome uncertainty, whereas the broadcasters tended to choose games with more certain, rather than uncertain, outcomes. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings were discussed.

Internal And External Factors

The efforts to improve man power quality are the efforts that is done by contractor to improve its work quality. Improving the man power quality principally influences of internal and external factors. The objective of this study is to answer the internal factors that influences project team performance quality in organization structure of contractor project at building construction implementation and to determine the variables that are needed to improve contractor enterprise quality. This research used building construction project which have done in 2010 at Lhokseumawe city, collecting by disseminating Likert questionnaire. Respondents were chosen from contractor elements, those were project managers and field supervisors. This research used descriptive and inferential analysis. The results showed that the overlapping of job descriptions among division in project organization project, the ability to put workers in project, the ability of adaptation in any changes, the tools and machines condition that are used, and the time realization that appropriates to project schedule that is done, are the dominant sub aspects influenced project performance optimization. The influence of organization aspect, workers aspect, physical environment aspect, tools and technology that are used in project aspect, and team performance quality in contractor project organization aspect towards project performance optimization aspect was 69,6%.Keywords: project performance optimization, team performance quality

The Individual

Abstract. The individual attitudes of every single team member are important for team performance. Studies show that each team member’s collective orientation – that is, propensity to work in a collective manner in team settings – enhances the team’s interdependent teamwork. In the German-speaking countries, there was previously no instrument to measure collective orientation. So, I developed and validated a German-language instrument to measure collective orientation. In three studies (N = 1028), I tested the validity of the instrument in terms of its internal structure and relationships with other variables. The results confirm the reliability and validity of the instrument. The instrument also predicts team performance in terms of interdependent teamwork. I discuss differences in established individual variables in team research and the role of collective orientation in teams. In future research, the instrument can be applied to diagnose teamwork deficiencies and evaluate interventions for developing team members’ collective orientation.

Abstract. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the flight-related core competencies for professional airline pilots and to structuralize them as components in a team performance framework. To achieve this, the core competency scores from a total of 2,560 OPC (Operator Proficiency Check) missions were analyzed. A principal component analysis (PCA) of pilots’ performance scores across the different competencies was conducted. Four principal components were extracted and a path analysis model was constructed on the basis of these factors. The path analysis utilizing the core competencies extracted adopted an input–process–output’ (IPO) model of team performance related directly to the activities on the flight deck. The results of the PCA and the path analysis strongly supported the proposed IPO model.
