“…The results offer important insight and contribution in the local context, where many banks organize their work through teams, but there is not enough information yet on how to create effective teams and increase their performances. To date, many researchers investigated topics such as the satisfaction and loyalty of the employees in the banking sector [53,54], leadership [55] and top management involvement and knowledge sharing [56,57], and change management and sustainability [58]. Therefore, the results of this paper can serve as a starting point for creating strategies and actions for team development and training with the aim of reaching higher level of team members' effectiveness and performances.…”

Teamwork is one of the most important factors for business success in the modern economy. In almost every area of business, teams receive more and more attention, since it has been found that teamwork leads to greater individual, group, and even organizational performance. The aim of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of teamwork and its relationship with team performances. Specifically, the authors tried to investigate which factors of teamwork effectiveness have a positive relationship with teamwork performance and the sustainability of teams in the future. The subject of the research is the effectiveness of teamwork as a construct that is widely presented in the scientific field of organizational behavior and human resource management, but is still underexplored in empirical research, especially in the banking sector. An investigation with a self-audit questionnaire on teamwork effectiveness was conducted on a sample of 401 employees in the banking sector in Serbia, in 16 out of the 26 existing banks in the country. The authors used SmartPLS software in order to test the questionnaire (indicator loadings, internal consistency reliability, convergent validity, and discriminant validity) and proposed research question (PLS-SEM). The results showed that factors such as innovative behavior of the team members, the quality of teamwork, and teamwork synergy have positive relations to teamwork performance. This paper contributes to the better understanding of the factors of teamwork effectiveness that contribute to team performances, with respect to the banking industry in Serbia. The limitation of the paper is the size of the sample, with respect to the total population.

“…The intensive use of knowledge management technologies in the banking sector is another reason to choose the sample from this sector. In literature, it is observed that there are some studies (Abbas et al, 2013;Abuazoum and Azizan 2013;Bilal, 2019;Milošević et al, 2019) on knowledge sharing in the banking sector. Knowledge is considered as an important asset and knowledge sharing among employees is considered as vital in banking sector (Kridan and Goulding 2006, p.216).…”

According to the “Social Value Orientation” model, the value orientation of individuals is divided into two categories as prosocial and proself. Proselfs (individuals with proself value orientation) are reluctant to share their knowledge. Within the scope of this study, individuals with dispositional envy are described as proselfs. There are studies in the literature in which envy is considered as a feeling and associated with sharing knowledge. However, no study is found on the relationship between knowledge sharing and dispositional envy which is a personality trait. In this study, based on the “Social Value Orientation” model, the relationship between dispositional envy and knowledge sharing is investigated. Knowledge sharing is vital in the banking sector, where knowledge management technologies are used extensively. For this reason, this study was carried out on 175 bank employees in the banking sector. Quantitative research methods were used in the study. Findings show that dispositional envy is negatively related to knowledge sharing.
