ABSTRACT

The conception and use of work teams have been one of the main subjects of management researches for the last few decades and in the past years many developments have happened in the kinds and usage of them, which have improved the condition of organizations and human resources management. Our objective in this paper is to observe the formation of work teams and how they affect human resources excellence. Finding new and creative solutions for todays intricate situations is becoming more and more difficult and employees can’t solve them on their own anymore and this shows and bolds the importance of teamwork and forming work teams. The main objective however in this paper is to evaluate the effect of 5 main characteristics of work teams (which are team structure, leadership, control, mutual support and communication) on the 3 main characteristics of human resources excellence (which are delegation, motivation and team work) in Torang Darya Shipping Company. To do so, 200 personnel at the department were randomly selected from 450 personnel by Cochran sample size formula and answered to the research made questionnaire derived from [1] [2] and [3]. The content validity of the questionnaire has been confirmed by the experts and academicians and the reliability has also been confirmed by Chornbachs alpha. Its value was obtained as 84.0%. The data were analyzed by bi-variable linear regression test and the findings indicated that team structure, leadership, control and communication affect meaningfully on human resources excellence but mutual support doesn’t have meaningful effect on human resources excellence.
