ABSTRACT

This survey-correlational research determined the team effectiveness and performance of employees in a state college. The antecedent variables were length of working experience, position, educational attainment, and type of personnel. The independent variables was team performance and the team effectiveness was the dependent variable. The study was conducted among 105 randomly selected employees in a state institution of higher learning in the province of Iloilo. One adopted, validated and pilot tested research questionnaire and another one standardized data gathering instrument were used; the Team Effectiveness Questionnaire (London leadership academy, 2020) and the actual accomplished performance rating using the Strategic Performance Management System (SPMS). Statistical tools were frequency count, percentage analysis, rank, mean, and standard, Kruskall Wallis H, Mann Whitney U test, and the Spearman rho. Significance level for all inferential test was set at 0.05 alpha. Findings of the study revealed that, the employees as a whole is effective as a team. But when employees were classified as to position those who are working as administrative support staff, administrative head, and faculty with designation are also effective as a team but those faculty without designation were just moderately effective as a team. On the other hand, performance of employees as a whole was outstanding. When they were grouped as to length of working experience, position, educational qualification, and type of personnel. Those employees having an experience of 11 to 20 years or 21 years and above; working as administrative head or faculty with or without designation; finished a degree of masters or doctorate; and for those who were teaching personnel have an outstanding performance. While those employees having an experience of 10 years and below; working as administrative support staff; finished a baccalaureate degree; and those who were nonteaching personnel have an very satisfactory performance. Moreover, a significant difference were noted in the employees team effectiveness classified according to position, but no significant difference were noted when they were classified as to length of working experience, educational qualification, and type of personnel. And as to employees team performance a significant difference were noted when they were classified according to position, educational qualification, and type of personnel, but no significant difference when they were classified as to length of working experience. Finally, negative and no significant relationship existed between team effectiveness and team performance.
