Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to an issue of work engagement. It draws two perspectives of its consideration: the individual and the team ones. It aims to present the differences between personal and team work engagement as well as to indicate the determinants of these two categories. The paper is a literature review. For the purpose of implementing the goal set in it, three approaches were applied: the P. R. Sparrow & C. L. Cooper approach identifying antecedents of social climate which determines whether any personal work engagement is likely to be developed, the W. A. Kahn approach identifying psychological conditions of personal work engagement, and the model for the emergence of team work engagement by P. L. Costa, A. M Passos and A. B. Bakker. In the paper the thesis is supported that work engagement on the personal and team levels are two separate categories which are determined by different conditions. The fact that work engagement on the personal and team levels are two separate categories determined by different conditions should be taken into account when conducting empirical research devoted to work engagement as well as in business practice when taking conscious actions in order to improve work performance on individual and team levels.
