dc.description.abstract | The contemporary workforce places a high demand on employees to exhibit
Adaptive Performance (AP) in response to change. As a result, there has been a
growing interest among professionals in understanding the determinants of AP.
This thesis aspirates to fill a current void in research by providing a more
comprehensive understanding of the nomological network of AP, with a specific
focus on the pivotal role played by mastery climates in fostering employee AP. By
delving into the intricacies of when and how mastery climates exert their influence
on AP, this thesis aims to examine the mediating role of psychological safety and
self-efficacy, as well as the moderating role of team tenure. Using a cross-sectional
survey design, 117 individuals were purposively criterion sampled from nine
different IT companies in Norway. The findings demonstrate a positive relationship
between perceived mastery climate and AP, wherein self-efficacy partially
mediates this relationship. However, no evidence was found supporting the
mediating role of psychological safety or the moderating role of team tenure. These
findings emphasize the importance of cultivating a mastery climate within
organizations and fostering employees’ belief in their abilities to effectively
perform tasks and adapt to changing circumstances. Overall, this thesis contributes
to the existing body of knowledge on the determinants of AP, addresses existing
uncertainties, and provides suggestions for future research endeavors. | en_US |
