Abstract

Recently, researchers within the tourism industry have shown an increased interest in organizational politics. Following this line of research, our study investigates an important yet neglected issue in these studies: the cross-level effects of organizational politics as a team-level phenomenon. Our fundamental basis concerns how team politics perspectives disrupt team behavioural integration (how “teamness” is perceived) and individual organizational identification (the perception of “oneness”) and how abusive supervision amplifies this negative effect. Findings have shown that an investigation of this kind is fundamental for comprehensively understanding how workplace politics influence service employees as well as organizational consequences, yet this study explores team politics’ impact on team- alongside individual-level procedures and results. Abstract and empirical inferences obtained from this investigation are discussed.
