Abstract : In this exploratory study, autonomous team members recollected types of deviance, ranging from mere incivility to severe aggression, that remained salient from their team experiences. A narrative analysis of their perceptions further revealed specific parts of the organizational context in which deviance was most likely to prevail. Specifically, responsibility lay with organizational leadership in shaping the level of team orientation within the culture, organizational collaboration, relationships with team-external constituents, member recruitment, and resource allocation to minimize levels of deviance to nurture an organizational context most conducive to the effective use of autonomous teams . Index Terms- autonomous teams, deviance, incivility, team-member perceptions.
