Shrnutí:Self-managing teams are considered a hallmark of employee participation and high-performance work practices. However, the results of research into their prevalence are usually incomparable, since sources use varied and divergent operationalisations.

We thereby aim to encourage standardisation in the measurement of team prevalence.
