    En este trabajo se propone una nueva conceptualización del clima de los equipos de trabajo, según la cual el clima es el patrón que componen las percepciones del equipo que tienen sus miembros. Esta conceptualización considera el clima como una propiedad configuracional de los equipos, donde las dimensiones de la dispersión tienen un papel importante. Se revisan los trabajos empíricos realizados acerca de los antecedentes y consecuencias de la dispersión intra-unidad en las percepciones de clima. Finalmente, se analizan las implicaciones prácticas de la conceptualización propuesta, y de los resultados de la investigación.

    We propose a new conceptualization of work team climate. According to it, work team climate refers to the pattern of employees� perceptions of their team. From this conceptualization, team climate is a configurational property, where dispersion dimensions have an important role to play. We review empirical research on the antecedents and consequences of within-team dispersion in climate perceptions. Finally, we draw a number of practical implications stemming from the proposed conceptualization and the reviewed research outcomes.
