Abstract

Purpose: This study aims at testing how team regulatory focus may relate to individual creativity and team innovation and addressing the fit/misfit issue of team regulatory focus and team bureaucracy. Design/Methodology/Approach: We collected data from 377 members and their leaders within 56 R&D teams in two Taiwan companies. Findings: A team promotion focus was positively related, whereas a team prevention focus was negatively related, to both team innovation and member creativity through team perspective taking and employee information elaboration, respectively. Furthermore, team bureaucracy played a moderating role that suppressed the indirect relationship between team regulatory focus and creativity. Important values: This is one of first studies to explore an underlying mechanism linking team regulatory focus and both team innovation and member creativity. We provide a more complete view of the creative and innovation implications of team-level self-regulation.

Discussion

In sum, our findings revealed that team promotion focus was positively related to employee information elaboration (team perspective taking), which in turn was positively related to individual creativity (team innovation). Team prevention focus, on the other hand, was negatively related to employee information elaboration (team perspective taking) and subsequently to individual creativity (team innovation). Finally, we observed that team bureaucratic context suppressed the indirect relationship between team regulatory focus and creativity. When the team centralization was high, the indirect relationship with individual creativity (via employee information elaboration) and team innovation (via perspective taking) was weaker for team promotion focus. Our findings demonstrated that the indirect relationship with team innovation (via team perspective taking) was stronger for team prevention focus when team formalization was high.
