Title: Joint Impact of Interdependence and Group Diversity on Innovation
Abstract: This questionnaire study among 343 members of 41 work teams in a financial services organization examined the effects of individual team members’ perceived task interdependence and perceived goal interdependence on innovative behavior in teams characterized by different levels of group diversity. Multilevel analyses revealed that individual’s perceived task and goal interdependence were not related to innovative behavior in homogeneous teams. In heterogeneous teams, however, task interdependence was strongly and positively related to innovative behavior for individuals who perceived high levels of goal interdependence, and unrelated to innovative behavior for those who perceived low levels of goal interdependence.
