Sammendrag
From previous research on motivational climate we know that some types

of leader behavior, high-quality relationships and climates seem to correspond to a

greater extent. However, to date, our knowledge of motivational climates and

specific leader behavior being more or less prominent in different phases of a

process remains limited. Based on 11 semi-structured interviews in 3 different

construction projects conducted in a project-based organization in Norway, we

investigated how leaders contribute in creating a motivational climate.

Two main findings derived from our study. First, leaders perceived the

motivational climate in the projects to be based on a combination of both a

mastery- and performance dimension, more or less prominent in the different

phases of a project. Second, by balancing the two climates and utilizing specific

leader behaviors and strategies such as involvement, feedback and task-oriented

leadership adapted to the different stages, leaders appear to create a motivational

climate combining both dimensions successfully.

Our research provides directions for future research on employee’s

perception of motivational climate and leader behaviors in the different phases of

a project. Furthermore, Veidekke, other construction companies and project-based

organizations in general could utilize the results from the study to develop

leadership programs and practices in their organization.
