Abstract

This descriptive study aims at developing a collective competence instrument for Information Technology (IT) teams. It was carried out in the city of Farroupilha (Brazil), with IT teams of a large footwear manufacturing company. To analyze data, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and linear regression were used. The results indicate that four factors explain the collective competence in IT work teams: Proactivity, Communication, Cooperation, and Interpersonal Relationship. Proactivity was the factor with the highest intensity of association with the general perception of collective competence. This study aims, through its instrument for measuring collective competence, at contributing to the creation, development, and improvement of such competences.
