We first review research on culture effects in teams, illustrating that mean levels of team cultural values have main (i.e. direct) effects, indirect effects (i.e. mediated by intervening variables), and moderating influences on team processes and outcomes. Variance in team cultural values or on country of origin (i.e. nationality diversity) also has main effects on team functioning, and we highlight contextual variables that strengthen or weaken these main effects. We next review research examining the effect of variance in team cultural values on global virtual teams, specifically. Finally, we review research on how cultural values shape employees' receptivity to empowering leadership behavior in teams. We conclude by discussing critical areas for future research.
我们首先回顾关于团队中文化效应的研究,阐明团队文化价值观的平均水平对团队过程和结果具有主效应(即直接效应)、间接效应(即通过中介变量介导)以及调节影响。团队文化价值观或原产国方面的差异(即国籍多样性)对团队功能也具有主效应,我们强调了强化或削弱这些主效应的情境变量。接下来,我们专门回顾研究团队文化价值观差异对全球虚拟团队影响的研究。最后,我们回顾关于文化价值观如何塑造员工对团队中赋能型领导行为接受度的研究。我们通过讨论未来研究的关键领域来得出结论。
