The objective of this study was to investigate and compare the relationships and variations among leadership, team trust and team performance in the service and manufacturing industries. The results of using structural equation modeling to conduct hypotheses testing show that leadership has a positive effect on team trust and team performance, and that team trust also has a positive effect on team performance. By using MANOVA analysis to test for significant variances in leadership, team trust and team performance in the service and manufacturing industries, a significant variance was discovered in the testing of instructed leadership, relational trust and institutional trust in both industries.

Servitisation studies in extant literature contribute to the resource-based view and relational view where industrial organisation view was largely ignored due to the focus on individual manufacturing units. In international business industry, competitiveness is required to enhance the performance of individual organisations. Following post-positivism epistemology, a multi-case study approach has been employed in this study. The unit of analysis is the network consisting of manufacture, supplier and the customer. Two such units of apparel manufacturing industry in Sri Lanka and two units from textile manufacturing industry in Taiwan were selected. This study establishes the link between servitised industry and national competitive advantage. The collaboration with suppliers, indirect competitors and other partners were identified as critical factors to differentiate a business-to-business (B2B) manufacturing industry in an international business.

The aim of this paper is to establish a conceptual articulation of team confidence in team success in scientific research teams at universities in the province of Jiangsu, China. Many universities have set up scientific research teams in order to produce further scientific research achievements and to promote progress. The study goals of this research are knowledge-based university science research teams. Fundamentally, the main objective of the analysis is to examine the effect of team confidence on team success in scientific research teams at universities in the province of Jiangsu, China. As this is a philosophical paper, to explain the conclusions, this analysis focuses on the empirical and theoretical articulations. Therefore, to achieve the research purpose, current research uses descriptive design as the most suitable study design. The findings indicate that the process variables have continuously attracted the attention of researchers to influence team performance; the relationship between team confidence and team performance has only begun to be explored. Team trust helps team members master team activities, minimise errors and delays, and enhance strategies to accomplish team goals, and develop creative problem-solving skills to better understand key task domains. Even, as successes in scientific research are placed into practical development. It hopes to bring tremendous economic benefits to businesses and the country.

The purpose of this paper is to determine the impacts of conflicts on team trust and team performance at the University Scientific Research Teams in Jiangsu Province, China. This study considers three types of conflicts as independent variables, team success as a dependent variable, and team confidence as the mediating variable (task conflict, relationship conflict and process conflict). The survey of questionnaires is used to gather raw data: the survey of questionnaires. The questionnaire refers to a method that allows researchers to gather information on a specific target group to compare, explain or characterise an event / situation, attitudes, expertise, habits, and/or socio-demographic characteristics, and ultimately 140 respondents were considered as a final sample for this analysis. This research contributes to the existing information assembly in recognising the success of the team as this is the primary study with the arrangement of such factors. In the case of University Scientific Research Teams in Jiangsu Province, this study seeks to broaden the understanding of the link between task and relationship conflict, learning ability, accessibility of information, process conflict, team confidence, workforce optimization and team efficiency. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0710/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

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 property of team trust, its determinants, and independent impact on team outcomes. We address this limitation by examining “team trust consensus”—a configural group construct capturing the extent to which team members share their levels of trust in the team—as a variable of theoretical and empirical interest in its own right. Cross-sectional data from a work team sample (Study 1, N = 120) provide initial support for our propositions that national culture diversity negatively affects trust consensus and that trust consensus positively affects team performance. Expanding on these findings, we propose a contingency model in which the negative impact of national culture diversity is mitigated by team virtuality and collective leadership. Multiwave data from an MBA team sample (Study 2, N = 95) offer support for these propositions and replicate the positive direct effect of trust consensus on team performance. Our findings indicate trust consensus is an important predictor of team performance and provide unique insight into the factors that jointly influence trust consensus within teams.

In today’s business world, employee retention is one of the much debated topics and identifying the reasons for employee turnover and implementing the necessary policies to retain employees can be crucial. Thus, all organizations expect to minimize the employee turnover to best possible level. Therefore, the intention of this research is to study the impact of Human Resource practices on employee retention, conducted on the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) sector in Sri Lanka. BPO sector is recognized as an emerging sector in Sri Lanka, and this sector is well known as an under-researched area. This study is significant as such research projects have been sparse in the Sri Lankan context and in order to fill that gap this research have been conducted for three companies namely Company A, B and C. The analysis was mainly based on 237 executive level employees from Company A, B and C respectively 108, 32 and 97 selected through simple random sampling. Primary data were collected using a self-administrated questionnaire and analyzed through deductive approach. According to the results obtain through regression analysis all three companies indicated that there is less impact of HR practices on employee retention. As a conclusion when management of BPO sector formulate the policies in their organizations with regard to employee retention, they should consider not only the HR practices but also, they have to concern about other factors that can effect on employees.
