Abstract
This research paper aims to identify the highest factor influencing the team
climate inventory and explore how demographic variables (individual‘s gender, age,
working experience, and Professional role which includes (Nurse, General Practitioner,
Specialist Nurse, Health visitor, Hospital Manger and other allied health professionals),
were significantly influencing the factors of team climate inventory. And secondly,
want to investigate whether Team climate is superior in smaller teams than in bigger
teams. The TCI is based on a four-factor theory of team climate for innovation. The
sample would consist of a random sample of 250 health care employees including
doctors, nurses, Specialist Nurses (SN), Hospital manager (HM), General Practitioner
(GP), pharmacists and allied health personnel working in primary health care setting in
Saudi Arabia. To assess the reliability of the TCI in healthcare teams, we calculated the
internal homogeneity by calculating Cronbach‘s alpha coefficients for the scales
emerging from the factor analyses.
