Abstract

This study analyzed the relationship between leadership styles and three dimensions of professional activity (teamwork, professional performance, and organizational commitment) in a multinational organization that uses the Scrum method. More specifically, it compared the team members' perception of the leadership of two team leaders; compared the team members' perception with the leaders' perception of their own leadership; and analyzed the predictive value of leadership styles in teamwork, in the perception of professional performance and in organizational commitment. A total of 166 employees participated in the study, of which 24 were Product Owners, 19 were Scrum Master and 123 were Team members. The results showed that the two team leaders were evaluated similarly, but the Product Owners showed more transformational leadership behaviors. In addition, team leaders evaluated their leadership more positively than team members. Finally, leadership styles, especially the positive feedback and active management dimensions, were important in explaining the three variables that characterize the functioning of employees. This study allowed to increase the understanding of the relationship between leadership and work in autonomous and self-managed teams.
