The role of instant messenger as computermediated communication tool for knowledge sharing and teamwork performance

Hönlinger, Johannes January 2018 (has links)
Background: The virtuality of teams has increased due to the emergence computer-mediated communication (CMC) tools in the last decades. The push of instant messengers (IM) in private life has also lead to a stronger influx in the professional context. Theories such as media-synchronicity theory or the computer-mediated communication interaction model have described the capabilities of CMC tools and indicated their usage in teamwork related contexts. In this realm, the transmission of social cues has always been a potentially important matter of discussion. Purpose: Relating to studies from Asia and research conducted at the beginning of the century, the impact of the use of IM as communication tools on knowledge sharing and teamwork performance in Germany shall be assessed. Method: A partial least square-structural equation model is developed and tested using a survey distributed via a snowball approach among professionals in Germany. Conclusion: The results show that there is a significant positive relationship between the use of IM and knowledge sharing, respectively teamwork performance through its influence on communication quality. However, there is also a negative impact on interactivity which negatively affects knowledge sharing. It is also indicated that interruptions do not seem to have a negative impact on teamwork performance as it was discussed and rejected in several previous studies. Emoticons as a transmitter of social cues have not demonstrated to be of significant importance for communication in a professional context as of now. IM use leads to a positive impact on the perception of communication quality. Overall, IM are on the way to become an important communication channel in teamwork tasks, but will mostly serve as a complementary means of communication.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao-Renato de Oliveira Guerreiro.pdf: 3063091 bytes, checksum: c05ac9ee5becff678a7dd0cce752745f (MD5) Previous issue date: 2003-02-25 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Due to the changing environment being noticed nowadays, a new reality seems to be coming up. Inside the organizations, this new world is noticed by the attempts to build flexible working environments, towards the respect to people, changing the thinking of men while just part of manufacturing machinery, without however to decrease the performance and competitiveness very important in the current days assuring a improvement to the organization . Many organizations, therefore, are looking for satisfying human needs while implementing operational changes, which are usually focused on process reengineering and team work activities. Considering that management practices are critical factors for leading in this environment, this dissertation s goal is to identify some of those practices, required for the construction of a management behavior based on the link between process management and Organizational Learning. The database research method, adopted in this work, consisted of a theoretical study and a case study. In this case, the managers practices have been observed during the Process Management methodology implementation, taking into account their own feelings, as well the feelings of their employees, together with the researcher observations. The conclusions have highlighted the following issues: the need for developing management practices, which are able to provide process management understanding; gain people commitment; provide required conditions for team work; encourage systemic vision of reality and create a continuous information flow through all levels of the organization. Then, management practices are presented while implementing process management, based on the learning organizational disciplines: group work development; endomarketing planning; commitment behavior; generating creative tension and microworlds; respecting the corparative values and organizational culture; building a shared vision. / O momento de transição vivenciado hoje dá indícios de que uma nova realidade está tomando forma. No âmbito das organizações, essa nova realidade é refletida na crescente preocupação com a construção de espaços de produção mais flexíveis e direcionados à valorização do ser humano em sua totalidade, modificando a idéia deste enquanto mera engrenagem do maquinário de produção, sem, no entanto diminuir o desempenho e competitividade fundamentais nos dias atuais assegurando um futuro próspero para a organização. Neste sentido, muitas organizações estão buscando abordagens que incorporem as necessidades humanas às mudanças operacionais, normalmente centradas na reestruturação dos processos e no fortalecimento do trabalho em equipe. Considerando-se que as ações dos gerentes são fundamentais para guiar esse momento de transição, este trabalho foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de identificar algumas dessas ações, necessárias à construção de uma abordagem gerencial baseada na visão de complementaridade entre o aperfeiçoamento de processos e a aprendizagem organizacional. Em função desse objetivo, adotou-se a pesquisa de arquivo, que se constituiu da revisão bibliográfica dos temas em questão e de uma aproximação da realidade através de um estudo de caso prático, real e efetivo. Neste caso, as práticas administrativas tem sido observadas durante a implementação da metodologia de gerenciamento do processo onde se levou em conta seus próprios sentimentos, como também os sentimentos dos colaboradores, em conjunto com as observações de pesquisa. As conclusões demonstraram: a importância de se desenvolver ações gerenciais capazes de propiciar a clareza dos objetivos do aperfeiçoamento de processos; buscar o comprometimento das pessoas com os mesmos; proporcionar as condições necessárias à realização do trabalho através de equipes; estimular a formação de uma visão sistêmica da realidade; criar um fluxo contínuo de comunicação em todos os níveis organizacionais. Desta forma, foram traçadas algumas propostas de ações a serem adotadas pelos gerentes quando da implementação do aperfeiçoamento de processos, tendo como base as disciplinas da aprendizagem organizacional: desenvolvimento de dinâmicas de grupo; planejamento da comunicação; adoção de uma postura de comprometimento; respeito aos valores corporativos e a cultura organizacional; estímulo à prática do diálogo; construção de uma visão compartilhada.
