Abstract:
This study examined the influence of employees’ satisfaction through achievement, recognition and 
nature of work towards their willingness to work in teams in order to reinforce the employees’ will 
towards working in teams. In this survey the relationship between the variables was tested among five 
major Malaysian organizations on the pathway of the theory of planned behavior. Herein, it was shown 
that the employees’ satisfaction towards their achievement, recognition received, and nature of work was 
positively related and motivational towards their willingness to work in teams. The study thus contributed 
to the process of organizing and human resource development in terms of willingness to work in teams.
