BOF Sabbatical 2021-2022 - Piet Van den Bossche.

The objectives of this sabbatical leave are situated within and contribute to my longstanding line of research on team learning. This research aims to understand how teams can bring multiple perspectives and rich problem conceptualization to complex problems by studying the knowledge sharing and development that team learning entails. I will use this sabbatical leave to accelerate our research on team learning with following foci: (1) development of a dynamic team learning model, that outlines and guides the choices in measurement and analysis; (2) study the dynamic interaction between team learning and leadership in teams. (3) Propose a methodology to analyse stress at the team-level and its relation to team learning and team leadership. This will be done by conducting a review, lab and field study. Also the further development of our Antwerp Social lab, incubator of research designs as explored in this sabbatical, is an explicit goal. The three research leaves that are scheduled enable collaboration with researchers at research groups that provide complementary expertise with regard to the three foci (e.g. leadership, process measures, dynamic conceptualisations, EDA, ...). Also they provide access to two renowned social sciences lab.
