SANCHEZ-CARDONA, Israel; SALANOVA SORIA, Marisa y LLORENS-GUMBAU, Susana. Leadership Intellectual Stimulation and Team Learning: the Mediating Role of Team Positive Affect. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2018, vol.17, n.1, pp.221-236. ISSN 1657-9267. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy17-1.list.
This study investigates how leadership intellectual stimulation relates to team positive affect and team learning. We explore the role of positive affect as mediator between leadership intellectual stimulation and team learning. Using a cross-sectional sample of 562 employees, nested within 130 teams from 44 small- and medium-size organizations, we implemented Structural Equation Model analysis at the team level. Results provide evidence of the strong relationship that intellectual stimulation has on team learning and team positive affect, as well as the potential of positive affect for stimulating team learning. Team positive affect serves as a partial mediator between intellectual stimulation and team learning, contributing to explain significant additional variance. Leadership intellectual stimulation is a relevant team social resource that provides support for team learning. Also, positive affect contributes significantly to improve learning among teams. This suggests the importance of developing leadership behaviors that encourage learning and team positive affect, which contributes to team learning and hence, performance.
