This study examined the roles of 3 multilevel motivational predictors in protégés' personal learning in teams: an autonomy-supportive team climate, mentors' autonomy support, and protégés' autonomy orientation. The authors followed 305 protégés in 58 teams for 12 weeks and found that all 3 predictors were positively related to the protégés' personal learning in teams and that an autonomy-supportive team climate augmented the effects of mentors' autonomy support and protégés' autonomy orientation on protégés' personal learning in teams. Protégés' personal learning in teams mediated the interactive effects of an autonomy-supportive team climate with mentors' autonomy support or protégés' autonomy orientation on protégés' behavioral and attitudinal outcomes, including their organizational citizenship behaviors and job involvement. The findings of this study provide business researchers and practitioners with valuable insights into the management of autonomy.
支持自主的团队氛围、导师的自主支持以及培养对象的自主取向。作者对 58 个团队中的 305 名培养对象进行了为期 12 周的跟踪研究,发现所有三个预测因子都与培养对象在团队中的个人学习呈正相关,支持自主的团队氛围增强了导师的自主支持和培养对象的自主取向对培养对象在团队中的个人学习的影响。团队中培养对象的个人学习在支持自主的团队氛围与导师的自主支持或培养对象的自主取向对培养对象的行为和态度结果(包括他们的组织公民行为和工作投入)的交互影响中起中介作用。本研究的发现为企业研究人员和从业者提供了关于自主管理的宝贵见解。
