연구개발팀의 다양성과 응집성이 팀 창의성에 미치는 영향

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Team diversity and cohesion can have conflicting effects on performance like a double-edged sword. In other words, diversity and cohesion can have both positive and negative impact on performance. An organization has to manage diversity and cohesion effectively in order to ensure that they produce a desirable outcome, and the primary responsibility for that falls on a team leader. This study has focused on team leader’s function as a creative role model that enhances team creativity as one of the situational factors
This study has targeted a R&D team in a R&D organization of a large domestic corporation to look into the effects team diversity and cohesion have on team creativity and the moderating effects of leadership function as a creative role model in relationship between team diversity and cohesion, and team creativity. The results show that team diversity has a positive impact on team creativity, whereas team cohesion has no significant impact on team creativity. The analysis of moderating effect indicates that leader’s function as a creative role model further reinforces the positive relationship between team diversity and team creativity. It is also found that the interaction between team cohesion and leadership function as a creative role model boosts team creativity. Lastly, the study also has explored theoretical and practical implications and the limitations of this research as well as the future directions of research.
