Abstract: | This study concentrates on some issues concerning the origins and developmental patterns of salutogenesis, i.e., health fostering coping style. First, we identify a number of environmental factors reportedly connected to successful coping with stress. Then we describe a method with which we can analyze team cultures and identify cultural factors related to team health. Finally, we present some results that we obtained while testing this method on several teams of middle management in an industrial enterprise. These results suggest that an “and–and” approach to coordination of actions (as opposed to an “or–or” approach), and a clear awareness of the value of specialized contributions to the total outcome play a significant role in improving the well-being of teams. |
