(2025) PSYP01 20251Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- The primary aim of the present study was to investigate and explore both the interaction and independent relationship between self-efficacy, developmental leadership, teamwork and motivation in relation to individual performance, to gain a deeper understanding of the practical implications within private sector organisations. The present study is built upon the theoretical gap that was observed in the literature, as past literature has not investigated the interconnected relationships in organisational research. Methodically, a quantitative design was utilized and the data was collected through an online question distributed to private sector organizations across diverse organisation industries (N = 107). From the past literature and... (More)

The present study is built upon the theoretical gap that was observed in the literature, as past literature has not investigated the interconnected relationships in organisational research. Methodically, a quantitative design was utilized and the data was collected through an online question distributed to private sector organizations across diverse organisation industries (N = 107). From the past literature and investigations, seven hypotheses were formed and assessed. The result demonstrated that self-efficacy had the strongest positive relationship with individual performance. This is one of the more notable findings given that self-efficacy has been relatively un-explorer in modern organizational research. Nevertheless, when observing the independent variables
interconnected they had greater positive relationships on individual performance, compared when considered in isolation. This supports the notion of there being higher-order interactions between the variables in relation to individual performance. These findings emphasize the importance of utilizing a holistic approach when integrating and altering organizational systems and human resource interventions. The result offers both practical and academic implications, suggesting that the interdependence of these psychological variables should be carefully considered when making recommendations for organisations. A multifaceted understanding of the variables could be essential for having a highly performing organisation, which can be an important factor to consider when giving practical suggestions. (Less)
