The Relationship of Empowering Leader Behavior to Team Learning Behavior and Team Transactive Memory: Team efficacy, Support for innovation, and Trust to leader as Mediators

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of empowering leader behavior on team learning behavior and team transactive memory (TTM) through mediated factors. We examined whether team efficacy, support for innovation, and trust to leader among team members mediated the effect of empowering leader behavior on team learning behavior and TTM, using 568 individuals from 112 teams in nine local companies and five multinational companies. The results indicated that empowering leader behavior was positively related to team efficacy, support for innovation, and trust to leader. In addition, team efficacy and support for innovation were positively related to both team learning behavior and TTM. However, trust to leader was significantly relevant to team learning behavior, but not to TTM. Therefore, team efficacy, support for innovation, and trust to leader mediated between empowering leader behavior and team learning behavior. Also, team efficacy and support for innovation mediated between empowering leader behavior and TTM, but trust to leader didn't. The implication and limitations of this research were discussed.
