Effects Of Team Leadership Clarity On Organizational Performance: A Study Of Sunrise Flour Mill Limited, Enugu State

ABSTRACT

Whether the context is producing TV programmes, training for war, developing new products in manufacturing organizations, or providing financial services, the use of work teams is both ubiquitous and increasing (Guzzo, 1996). Team working is associated with improved financial performance (Macy and Izumi, 1993) and with improvements in organizational efficiency and quality (Applebaum and Batt, 1994). One reason why organizations are creating team-based structures is that this form of working provides the flexibility needed to respond effectively, appropriately, and quickly to the constantly changing demands in the organization’s environment (Zaccaro, Rittman, and Marks, 2001).
