Shared Leadership in Teams: An Investigation of Antecedent Conditions and Performance
研究了59个咨询团队中共享领导的前因条件(内部团队环境和外部辅导)及其对客户评定的团队绩效的影响。
Shared leadership refers to a team property whereby leadership is distributed among team members rather than focused on a single designated leader. We examined antecedent conditions that lead to the development of shared leadership and the influence of shared leadership on team performance in a sample of 59 consulting teams. Both the internal team environment, consisting of shared purpose, social support, and voice, and external coaching were important predictors of shared leadership emergence. In turn, shared leadership was found to predict team performance as rated by clients. We conclude by discussing the implications of these findings for team leadership and effectiveness.
