Abstract

Innovative development of an organisation requires good management practice based on introducing creative solutions, this however can only be possible by making each member of the organisation aware of the value of team learning. This ability to build a creative environment, by means of an apt quality of teamwork shaped by good cooperation and its benefits, especially during a time of change, produces opportunities for better adaptation and distinction of an organisation. By developing the team's activity, one can achieve an enhancement effect - the synergy. The aim of the article is to verify the mediation hypothesis on the mediative role of synergy in the team’s relations between the team work and the improvement of learning organisation. Thus to present relevant arguments, mixed studies, based on group interviews and a diagnostic survey, were performed. The study applied methods of statistical analysis determining the correlation coefficient factor analysis (CFA) and regression analysis. Consequently, it was noticed that synergy emerging on the basis of high quality teamwork strengthens the impact of team work on improving the learning organisation by introducing innovative changes. It was also found that the management method promoting proactivity supports the development of entrepreneurial activities in a team, but it does not have a direct impact on the synergy in a team. The study showed that the quality factors of teamwork are supported by social potential, which is important for shaping the level of team working in a learning organisation.
