“…Despite this, these findings also demonstrate that staff who are well attached to their work family and have a sense of belonging are able to demonstrate resilience, in sharing both the burden of the work and collectively celebrating success together. Although the concept of belonging to a work family has not been previously documented in the literature, aspects of this concept could be related to the plethora of literature outlining the value of belonging to a team, and the importance of teamwork (McClure & Brown, 2008; Mijakoski et al, 2018; Rohan & Bausch, 2009).…”

Background: The purpose of this study is to explore staff experiences of working in a children's blood and cancer center in New Zealand, with a particular focus on how staff maintain resilience in their work and sustain working in this difficult area. Methods: Constructivist grounded theory (GT) methods were used to collect data using focus groups and individual interviews with all staff (nursing, medical, allied health, cleaning, and support staff) working in the area. Data were analyzed using constant comparative analysis, and data collection continued until theoretical saturation was achieved. Results: The GT constructed in this study is being a work family, which includes three core categories: finding attachment, becoming a work family, and having an identity. Discussion: This study found that regardless of profession or discipline, all staff experience similar feelings about their work, and can develop and enhance their resilience by belonging to a “work family.” Being socially connected to the work family was recognized as the most supportive intervention, and was identified as being of greater value than the traditional one-on-one support that is currently encouraged.

“…burnout) (Demerouti et al , 2019; Lesener et al , 2019). Several studies show job demand is a predictor of job burnout (Cho et al , 2020; Mijakoski et al , 2018; Salmela-Aro and Upadyaya, 2018; Sun et al , 2020). For instance, Lee and Eissenstat (2018) clarified that psychological job demands affect burnout, which in turn influence intentions to quit.…”

Purpose Recent research highlights the necessity to critically examine the factors that can reduce the relationship between job stressors, such as job demand and burnout, to create healthier workplaces. This study aims to explore how five types of motivations (extrinsic motivation-social, extrinsic motivation- material, introjected, identified and intrinsic motivation), in combination with extraversion trait influence the impact of job demands on job burnout. Design/methodology/approach This study adopted a set-theoretic approach named fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to analyze the data collected from 84 employees working in an research and development department of a public organization. Findings Findings revealed two distinct configurations. First, the absence of intrinsic and identified motivations lead to job burnout if extraverted participants suffer from high job demands. Second, non-extraverted participants reported high job burnout in the presence of high job demands, although all five types of motivations drove them. Practical implications This study suggests managers need to consider personalized preventive actions, depending on the level of extraversion trait when they try to motivate their employees who are dealing with high levels of job demands. Originality/value The emerging trend in social science suggests adopting linearity assumptions to study social phenomena is inconsistent with the reality of human behavior. Thus, this study used fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis to examine the complex interplay among all five types of motivations, extraversion trait, job demands, which contribute to burnout.

“…Teamwork, on the other hand, is defined as a process through which a team focuses on the working processes together and takes action to create an environment that values collaboration among team members (Serinkan and Kızıloğlu, 2015). According to Mijakoski et al (2018), it is defined as a specific cooperative process between members which allows them to develop effective and mutual relationships in accomplishing team goals through sharing of knowledge and skills. It is also defined as a synergistic process in which organizational members work interdependently and cooperatively to achieve common organizational goals (Nzewi et al , 2015).…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to empirically explore the mediating effect of teamwork on the relationship between strategic orientation and organizational performance. Design/methodology/approach This study adopted a descriptive research design. A self-reported questionnaire was used to collect data from 253 bank managers representing 20 commercial banks in Nigeria. The author used SmartPLS-SEM to analyze the data collected. Findings The results of the structural models showed a significantly positive relationship between strategic orientation and organizational performance on the one hand and between strategic orientation and teamwork on the other. It was also found that teamwork had a significantly positive link with organizational performance. Further analysis revealed that teamwork fully mediated the relationship between strategic orientation and organizational performance. Research limitations/implications This study focuses on the Nigerian banking sector. Thus, it limits the generalizability of its findings to other sectors not covered. Future researchers could extend the study to other sectors to corroborate the findings presented. Practical implications The findings of this study provide some practical implications for business organizations and managers. Business organizations must be strategically positioned so that they can compete in today’s highly dynamic and competitive business environment and achieve superior performance. Likewise, business managers should make sure that all employees and sections in their organizations work cooperatively as a team by creating a collaborative climate where team spirit and teamwork thrive. Originality/value To the best of the author’s knowledge, this study is the first to provide empirical evidence of the mediating effect of teamwork on the relationship between strategic orientation and organizational performance. In that regard, it makes a valuable contribution to the field of strategic management and enhances the applicability and the generalizability of contingency and resource-based view theories across different environmental settings.
