It is widely assumed that transformational leadership can effectively facilitate the sharing of knowledge among followers, but most investigations of the underlying mechanisms were based on the social exchange perspective. Based on a sensegiving theory perspective, this article attempts to uncover the mechanisms by which transformational leadership has its impact on employee knowledge sharing behavior by proposing two team-directed mediating mechanisms: perceived team goal commitment and perceived team identification. Results of multi-source and time-lagged data from 186 leader-follower pairs supported the proposed mediating effects. Implications and limitations are discussed.
人们普遍认为变革型领导能够有效地促进追随者之间的知识共享,但大多数对潜在机制的研究都是基于社会交换视角。基于意义赋予理论视角,本文试图通过提出两个团队导向的中介机制:感知到的团队目标承诺和感知到的团队认同,来揭示变革型领导对员工知识共享行为产生影响的机制。来自186对领导-追随者对的多源和时间滞后数据结果支持了所提出的中介效应。文章还讨论了研究的意义和局限性。
