A Research About The Relationship Among Leader- Member Exchange, Knowledge Sharing And Team Performance

In order to better adapt to the environment of uncertainty and complexity of the task, the team’s work came into being. Team was used to complete more complex tasks, and maintain flexibility to respond to unforeseen environmental changes, it become an important way to deal with the changing environment organizations, high-performance team has become the key to improving productivity and organizational success. In various factors that affect team performance, and knowledge sharing is considered to be an important way to improve team performance. In today’s knowledge-based society, many enterprise employees are knowledge workers, competition among enterprises is the competition of knowledge, talent competition, In order to enhance the competitiveness of enterprises, leaders should focus more on knowledge administration. Researches have shown that promote the level of knowledge management can enhance corporate performance. Knowledge sharing as a very important part of the knowledge management, it has a positive impact to improve enterprise performance.According to a study for the leaders, the members of the organization will form a "insiders" and "outsiders" of the points, the circle members received more attention and support of the leader, and the members of the outside because of the lack of effective communication and leadership tend to engage in more conventional work, between superiors and is only limited to a formal contractual relationship, subordinates through the perception of the quality of this relationship have different behavior, including knowledge sharing with other members.Because of the importance of the leaders for the enterprises, and because of the importance of knowledge and talent in today’s society, this article will focus on research to explore the relationship between leader-member exchange, knowledge sharing and team performance, to study leader-member exchange mechanisms of relationship, knowledge sharing and team performance relationship between the focus on knowledge sharing in leader-member exchange intermediary role between relationships and team performance.This study uses methods such as literature reading, questionnaire, data analysis,First, the relationship between leader-member exchange, knowledge sharing and team performance three variables were systematic theoretical review, based on this theoretical model proposed in this study and the study hypothesis; After consulting the related empirical papers, I collected the mature scale that has reliability and validity for leading members exchange relationship, knowledge sharing and team performance. Integration of the preparation of cost research questionnaires and by issuing electronic questionnaire and paper questionnaire to collect questionnaire. Finally I use spss20.0 to verify the basic assumptions of the proposed research model.Previous studies from leading members of the exchange and more individual level to start focusing on the study of the relationship between leader-member exchange subordinate individual job performance and other outcome variables, this study examines the level of leadership from the team members of the team environment through knowledge exchange and sharing of the intermediary variable impact on team performance. From the research perspective, the leader-member exchange relationship as the dependent variable, the knowledge sharing as intermediary variables, team performance variables for results for research, is an important complement of relevant theory. Existing literature explore more on the influence factors of team performance, but for the generated path of team performance, there are intermediary variables and regulation was not much, This paper introduced the knowledge sharing as intermediary variables, of these discussion leader-member exchange relationship and knowledge sharing effects on team performance effect and synergy, and it is helpful to enrich the theoretical basis of research on team performance management, provides some references for team performance ascension path.The main conclusions of this study were as follows:1. Leader-member exchange relationship is significantly positive influence on knowledge sharing behavior of employees. Leader-member exchange relationship between the four dimensions of emotion, loyalty, contribution, and professional respect have positive influence on knowledge sharing behavior of employees.2. Leader-member exchange relationship has significantly positive influence on team performance (task, member satisfaction, learning).3. Knowledge sharing (knowledge dissemination, knowledge absorption) has significantly positive influence on team performance.4. Knowledge sharing has partial intermediary effect in the leader-member exchange relationship and team performance.The results of this study will help business leaders find deep-seated reasons affect team performance, to cultivate and develop high quality leader-member exchange relationship actively, attach great importance to the knowledge sharing within the team, provides a new method and a new perspective to improve team performance for enterprise managers.
