摘要

In the context where there is increasingly intense discussion about the need for a humanistic approach or about people-oriented management, teamwork is more and more encouraged in all aspects of professional life. The coronavirus pandemic has hampered the activity of organisations, raising challenges not thought of until then, but it has also created the opportunity to bring to light individual qualities and team features which had not been exploited before. The question can be asked—how has the period of the last 2 years affected the performance of the teams and how has the employee-employer relationship evolved? Can we talk about a real partnership? We find, from empirical data, that the relationship between the two parties has generally improved, and employees’ mental health has begun to represent a priority for employers, who have begun to pay more attention to the needs of individuals working in the organisations they coordinate. The success or failure of an organisation depends to a great extent on how business leaders understand how to manage the work of teams, but also how employees initiate responsible behaviour towards the performance of individual and group tasks.
