Abstract: We examined the effect of project team culture on the evolution of team efficacy in a sample of 118 project teams. Little is known about the factors responsible for the development of team efficacy — the collective belief of a project team that it can be effective. Results reveal that culture in project-based work, is related to the project team’s efficacy, and the project team’s efficacy is related to success. Our findings provide project leaders with an alternative informal lever to enhance project success, by influencing team efficacy in project-based work.
