“好士兵”还是“坏苹果”？员工建设性越轨行为对团队绩效的非线性影响机制

文章基于IPO理论探讨了员工建设性越轨行为对团队绩效的“过犹不及”效应的作用机制和边界条件，并通过两阶段追踪问卷调查法获取了62名直接主管和290名员工的配对数据。研究结果发现：员工建设性越轨行为与团队绩效呈倒U形关系；团队创造力在员工建设性越轨行为与团队绩效之间的倒U形关系中起完全中介作用；领导的政治技能在员工建设性越轨行为与团队创造力之间的倒U形关系中不起调节作用。

“Good Soldier” or “Bad Apple”?The Inverted U-shaped Relationship between Constructive Deviance and Team Performance

Based on the IPO theory, we explored the “too-much-of-a-good-thing” effect of constructive deviance on team performance. We collected data using the paired questionnaires by two-wave survey and also obtained data from 62 supervisors and 290 subordinates to test the hypotheses. The results of statistical analysis show that: constructive deviance has a direct, inverted U-shaped impact on team performance; team creativity fully mediates the inverted U-shaped relationship between constructive deviance and team performance; the leader's political skill does not play a moderating role in the inverted U-shaped relationship between constructive deviance and team creativity.
