Abstract
This thesis examines the mediating role of task interdependence in the relationship between shared leadership and organizational performance. Shared leadership, characterized by distributed responsibility and influence within teams, has gained attention for its potential to enhance collaboration, innovation, and responsiveness within dynamic environments. Task interdependence, defined as the extent to which team members rely on each other to complete tasks, is posited to be a critical factor in achieving effective team performance. Through a comprehensive review of the literature and empirical analysis, this study investigates the interconnectedness of these constructs. However, results indicate that task interdependence does not significantly mediate the impact of shared leadership on performance outcomes. Despite the lack of significant mediation, the study provides insights into the complex dynamics of shared leadership and task interdependence, contributing to the theoretical understanding of leadership effectiveness. These findings suggest the need for further research to explore other potential mediators and moderators in the relationship between shared leadership and organizational performance.
