讲座摘要:

Organizations are increasingly promoting competition amongst teams in a bid to motivate and enhance their innovation. Yet, competition can also curtail the exchange of knowledge and ideas among these teams, which are important catalysts for the development of innovative products and services. Using two studies—a team-network experimental study and a field study of 73 knowledge-intensive teams in technology firms—we find that extensive competition faced by a focal team from other teams reduces its access to and utilization of knowledge resources from other teams, thereby hindering team innovation. Applying insights from structural hole theory, we further find that occupying brokerage positions in the inter-team information exchange network buffers the effects of competition such that the negative effects of competition on knowledge integration and innovation are stronger when teams do not occupy such advantageous positions. Theoretical and practical implications of the effects of team competition and brokerage are discussed.
