 Workplace context and its effect on individual competencies and performance in work teamsMikhail Rozhkov, Benny C.F. Cheung and Eric Tsui International Journal of Business Performance Management, 2017, vol. 18, issue 1, 49-81 Abstract: The purpose of this study was to understand the effect of workplace context on competencies and performance in work (project) teams. This study was conducted at seven technology-based companies in Hong Kong and China. The results of the study provide companies with important knowledge on how to encourage the right competencies to achieve high performance in a workplace. This paper attempts to propose a holistic approach on improving individual and team performance in companies. The empirical evidence obtained confirms the importance of the contextual factors as predictors of individual competencies and performance level of team members. Specifically, the study conducted for industry integrated the concepts of organisational culture, team climate and managing skills into one model that allowed the prediction of the level of competencies and the performance of team members in work teams. Keywords: individual performance; individual competencies; workplace context; organisational culture; team performance; work teams; teamwork; project teams; Hong Kong; China; team climate; skills management; team members.
