چکیده (انگلیسی):

This study examined how leaders’ internal and external activities
mediate the relationship of functional heterogeneity and interteam goal
interdependence to team effectiveness (in-role performance and innovation)
in interdisciplinary teams. The results of the structural equation model
from a sample of 92 interdisciplinary teams indicate that leaders’ internal
activities fully mediate the relationship of team functional heterogeneity and
interteam goal interdependence to team in-role performance. The leaders’
external activities were found to fully mediate the relationship of interteam
goal interdependence to team innovation. We discuss the implications of
these findings for both theory and practice.
