Abstract
This paper analyzes the relationship between labor productivity and team performance by using the National Football League (NFL) data between 1994-1995 and 2008-2009 seasons. In order to do this, we collect statistical data from two major web-sites as of nfl.com and pro-football-reference.com, and utilize a methodology of Poisson regression model because we have count data. The dependent variable is a winning percentage and independent variables are player performance in offense and defense indicating labor productivity. From the empirical analysis, we found the number of independent variables has positive impacts on team performance. Thus, we can conclude that there exists a positive relationship between labor productivity and team (organizational) performance. In addition, we can conclude that the quarterback`s performance is a statistically significant determinant of team performance.
