An Analysis on the Effectiveness of Team Building: The Impact on Human Resources

Abstract

The scope of discussion in this study includes the aspect of human resource management and administration that focuses on the effectiveness of team building in producing employees who are skilled, innovative, creative, competitive and alert to the needs of the organization. In this context, we evaluate and analyze the effectiveness of the function of human resource team building by looking at three key factors: Task Oriented Roles Factor, Relationship Oriented Roles Factor and Self Oriented Roles Factor. In this descriptive study, about 150 ancillary staffs at the National University of Malaysia have been randomly identified as the respondents. This study attempts to analyse the extent in which the effective function of team building may be factored upon the sheer spirit, job motivation and high-level skill of these employees which may indirectly reflect the status and strength of the aspect of human resource management. The data of this study are analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) program (version 17.0 for Windows). It is hoped that the publication of this study will contribute ideas and opinions towards improving and consolidating the function of human resource development that is in line with the mission and vision of the university as well as the government in general, in creating skilled and effective civil servants.
