Due to an ever-changing workforce, teams are susceptible to membership change, defined in this study as current members leaving the team and new members joining. In order to succeed, teams must adapt. This study investigated the role of Behavioural Integration (BI) in differentiating between teams on team performance, satisfaction and perceptions of learning. Using multilevel growth modeling, results indicated that guests’ BI was not a reliable predictor of team performance, however, it was positively related to the starting intercept for satisfaction. Supplemental analyses identified individual’s perceptions of social identity and psychological safety as significantly reliable predictors of subsequent individual perceptions of BI. The implications of these results are discussed, as well as an in-depth look at Behavioral Integration as a future mediator in our current team process models.engUniversity of Calgary graduate students retain copyright ownership and moral rights for their thesis.
