Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Leadership and Human Resources - Leadership, grade: 3.9, , course: MBA, language: English, abstract: The main purpose of this study is to discuss vision clarity, role clarity, and further elaborate and research their impacts on team performance. The study is conducted on a number of almost 20 different NGOs in the developmental sector of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (specifically Peshawar and FATA Federally Tribal Administered Areas). The importance of vision and role clarity cannot be neglected in NGOs sector. These NGOs spanned across a number of areas – humanitarian, education, environment, human rights, construction, public policy and others. This research relied on both primary data and secondary data. Primary data was collected through questionnaires and for secondary data, previous literature was reviewed on similar studies. Our literature reviewed the interdependence and relationship of each variable through forward and backward referencing methods. After having studied vision, role clarity and team performance on two various groups – administrative and team level – of each team, an empirical test was done of the data and the influence on overall team performance was evaluated. The respondents from whom the data was collected comprised a total of 100 members (sample size). Besides, other similar studies in the literature, we relied on non-probability sampling technique to identify our sample size due to lack of time, resources and efforts. After the data was collected from the sample through an adopted questionnaire from literature – drawn and modified after a pilot test – it was processed and analyzed through SPSS and regression was used to find the relationship among the variables. As a result of the research study, a positive relationship was found between vision clarity, role clarity and team performance. They both were significantly related to performance of the team. These findings were consistent with previous research scholarship. The most important recommendation is to compose a team with the necessary capabilities and skills, but should also be offered with a clearly stated vision.
