定位：基于价值的领导实践在高绩效组织的团队合作中发挥着关键作用。研究目的：本研究的目的是通过实证验证一个理论模型，该模型解释仆人式领导、情感团队承诺和团队有效性之间的结构关系。研究动机：生产对团队的依赖程度不断提高，需要分析以追随者为中心的领导实践在提高团队效率方面的作用。研究设计、途径和方法：从南非西开普省 32 所学校抽取了由 202 名中小学教师组成的非概率和多元文化样本。主要发现：通过探索性因素分析发现了高水平的可靠性，并证明了子量表的一维性。通过验证性因素分析，发现测量模型与数据非常吻合。结构方程模型显示结构模型的合理拟合。在仆人式领导、团队效率和情感团队承诺之间发现了积极的关系。标准多重回归分析表明，情感团队承诺调节仆人式领导与团队效率之间的关系。实践/管理影响：研究结果强调了仆人式领导和情感团队承诺在团队绩效中发挥的核心作用。如果员工对自己的工作团队有忠诚度，那么仆人式领导可以提高团队效率。贡献/增值：仅仆人式领导风格可能不足以提高团队效率；其他变量，例如情感团队承诺，也发挥了作用。 该研究提出了一些特定的变量，这些变量也可以与领导力相结合，对团队效率产生积极影响。
Orientation: Value-based leadership practices play a critical role in teamwork in high-performance organisations. Research purpose: The aim of the study was to empirically validate a theoretical model explicating the structural relationships between servant leadership, affective team commitment and team effectiveness. Motivation for the study: The increased eliance on teams for production calls for an analysis of the role of follower-focused leadership practices in enhancing eam effectiveness. Research design, approach and method: A non-probabilityand multicultural sample consisting of 202 primary and secondary school teachers was drawn from 32 chools in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. Main findings: High levels of reliability were found and uni-dimensionality of the subscales was demonstrated through exploratory factor analyses. Good fit with the data was found for the measurement models through confirmatory factor analyses. Structural equation modelling showed a reasonable fit for the structural model. Positive relationships were found amongst servant leadership, team effectiveness and affective team commitment. Standard multiple regression analysis showed that affective team commitment moderated the relationship between servant leadership and team effectiveness. Practical/managerial implications: The findings emphasise the central role played by servant leadership and affective team commitment in team performance. Servant leadership fosters team effectiveness if employees feel committed to their work team. Contribution/value-add: The servant leadership style alone may not be a sufficient condition for team effectiveness; other variables, such as affective team commitment, also play a role. The study suggested specific variables that may also combine with leadership to positively influence team effectiveness.
