Does an adequate team climate for learning predict team effectiveness and innovation potential? A psychometric validation of the Team Climate questionnaire for Learning in an organizational context

This paper reports the application and psychometric validation of a multi-dimensional measure of team climate for learning in a multinational organization. The research project aimed at extending previous findings at Aston Business School, using the English 33-item version of Brodbeck's Team Cl...
