Team climate inventory with a merged organization

Abstract
The present study examines the team climate for innovation in work teams within a newly merged organization.

The 38-item original inventory was used and based on the results, a 1999 proposed shortened version of 14 items by Kivimaki and Elovainio was compared with the original one. Analysis indicated that the short version can be a valid alternative to the original version but that... (More)
