Abstract

Shared leadership is an emerging leadership style that distributes the leadership function among the members of a group aiming to achieve a common goal. It has been shown to improve a number of team outcomes, such as team creativity, team innovation, and team performance. According to research, team creativity has become a good indicator of organizational success and survival. Therefore, during this study we seek to investigate the impact of shared leadership on team creativity. Furthermore, psychological safety has been shown to positively affect team creativity, which we seek to research in this study. Consequently, drawing from previous research, we also investigate the moderating effect of psychological safety on the relationship between shared leadership and team creativity. We conducted a survey study (N=47) using convenience and snowball sampling, which was filled by members of teams across various domains. The findings demonstrated that shared leadership and psychological safety have a positive effect on team creativity. However, the moderation hypothesis was not supported by the results.
