Abstract: Enhancing teamwork self-efficacy (TSE) fosters a culture of continuous learning and innovation, particularly in dynamic industries like information technology (IT). Considering its importance, this study investigates the influence of organisational learning culture (OLC) on TSE and the serial mediation of team cohesion (TC) and self-competence (SC) of employees concerning this relationship in the Indian IT industry. The study used a cross-sectional survey method and 387 samples to analyse the hypothesis using a structural equation modelling approach. According to the results, OLC has a detrimental effect on TSE within the framework. However, TSE is influenced by TC's substantial mediation effect between OLC and SC. It discloses that recognising and understanding TC and SC reap the benefits of OLC improving TSE, potentially reducing layoff and attrition while increasing team productivity. This study adds to the body of knowledge on adult TSE in the workplace and emphasises its applicability to the Indian workforce context.
