Show moreAcross 15 weeks, data from 48 interdisciplinary teams were collected to test the direct and indirect effects of shared authentic leadership on team attitudes (i.e., team work engagement & team satisfaction). Under the conservation of resources (COR) theory, team social support was considered a team resource, mediating the relationship between shared authentic leadership and team attitudes respectively. Functional diversity was also examined as a moderator between team social support and team attitudes. Results revealed that shared authentic leadership was a significant and positive predictor of team attitudes. However, team social support was not found to be a significant mediator. On the other hand, functional diversity was able to partially moderate the relationship between socio-emotional social support and team work engagement. A discussion of the results, strengths, and limitations of this study will be provided at the end of this manuscript. Show less
