Managerial Ability, Players’ Cultural Diversity, and Sporting and Economic Performance in English Soccer
2012
We use a large homemade database on professional soccer in England to estimate the relevance of managerial ability on performance and the managerial skills in keeping up cultural diversity. The team manager faces a set of very complex tasks. Not only he is the head coach of the soccer team, thus influencing sporting performance, but he can also have an impact on performance, by improving economic efficiency or by limiting the organization innovation in order to foster the creation of organizational routines. The sporting competitive advantage translates into economic and financial performance; therefore the manager is a dominant voice in the financial viability of the club, too. We also mea…
Student teams’ development over time: tracing the relationship between the quality of communication and teams’ performance
2016
Current discussions in higher education and alumni training acknowledge the challenges training programs face in responding to the authentic needs of the labor market. In addition to academic knowledge, higher education institutions are expected to provide general twenty-first-century skills, such as problem-solving, critical thinking, collaboration, and interpersonal skills. To meet these challenges, many institutions utilize collaborative pedagogies such as learning in teams. However, teamwork in higher education tends to focus primarily on the task aspects of performance at the expense of the team aspects, and for educators, there may be no feasible way to assess whether the students are…
Teams and project performance: an ability, motivation, and opportunity approach
2020
This article analyzes the relationships between project performance and the team’s ability, motivation, and opportunity (AMO). We contribute to the project management literature by exploring which combinations of AMO factors are best for project performance at different levels of complexity. We test our hypotheses on a sample of 285 projects. Our study shows that in simple projects, ability is the key factor both as a main effect and as a constraining factor that acts as a bottleneck for project performance. In the case of complex projects, the multiplicative model is superior given the significant interaction effects of motivation.

Motivational configurations of cultural intelligence, social integration, and performance in global virtual teams
2021
Abstract Global virtual teams (GVTs), electronically connected workgroups of geographically dispersed team members in multinational settings, may suffer from less social integration. However, they may also benefit from an increased ability to process information due to a richer portfolio of ideas and problem-solving approaches that the team’s diversity provides. We propose that the cultural intelligence (CQ) of team members contributes positively to social integration in GVTs and improves performance. Using data from 263 GVTs, we utilized both structural equation modeling and necessary condition analyses to explore the associations between motivational CQ and a team’s social integration and…

Shared Situational Awareness in a Professional Soccer Team: An Explorative Analysis of Post-Performance Interviews
2020
Sport science research has done little to elaborate on the cognitive factors that turn a collection of individual players into a coordinated elite team. The purpose of this paper is to clarify if the players and coach of an elite soccer team express shared situational awareness. Ten players and one coach were exposed to twelve video pictures from a previous soccer match, and their statements for each picture were recorded and analyzed using a qualitative approach. Two of five game situations were with ball possession and three out of seven were without ball possession
Teams’ perceptions of charismatic leadership: The role of average perceptions and homogeneity in predicting team performance via intra-team communica…
2023
Este estudio investiga si las percepciones intraequipo del carisma de los líderes se relacionan con el rendimiento del equipo a través de la calidad de la comunicación del equipo. Diferencio entre los roles de las percepciones promedio del liderazgo carismático y la homogeneidad de los miembros del equipo en estas percepciones. Se espera que tanto percepciones promedio más altas como una mayor homogeneidad predigan un mayor rendimiento del equipo a través de la calidad de la comunicación intraequipo. Además, planteo la hipótesis de que los efectos positivos de las percepciones promedio del carisma en la calidad de la comunicación y el rendimiento estarán moderados por la homogeneidad en est…
