    En este estudio se conceptualiza la iniciativa personal como un constructo colectivo y se adapta y valida una escala para evaluarlo con una muestra española de 308 participantes pertenecientes a 91 equipos de trabajo. La iniciativa personal a nivel grupal es un síndrome conductual en el que el equipo manifiesta una aproximación al trabajo autoiniciada, proactiva, persistente, capaz de modificar el ambiente y pro-organización. Como variable predictora se analizó el clima para la iniciativa, además de la iniciativa personal a nivel grupal. Las variables de resultado que se han analizado se refieren al desempeño organizacional y del equipo, tomando como criterio la productividad del equipo y la innovación, analizando la innovación radical. La escala cuenta con unas adecuadas propiedades psicométricas. Los resultados reflejan que existe relación entre las dos variables predictoras. Además, la iniciativa personal a nivel grupal se relaciona con la productividad del equipo, mientras que el clima para la iniciativa se relaciona con la innovación.

    In this study, we conceptualize personal initiative as a collective construct and adapt and validate a scale to evaluate it with a sample of 308 Spanish participants belonging to 91 work teams. Personal initiative at group level is a behavioural syndrome in which the team shows an approach to work that is self-initiated, proactive, persistent, capable of modifying the atmosphere and pro organization. As a predictive variable, we analysed the climate for initiative as well as personal initiative at group level. The resulting variables that were analysed referred to organization and team performance, with the team productivity and innovation as the criteria, analysing radical innovation. The scale has suitable psychometric properties. The results show that there is a relationship between the two predictive variables. Furthermore, personal initiative at group level is related to team productivity, while the climate for initiative is related to innovation.
