  • Abstract
    Work support has been considered as a key feature of the work environment for employee creativity, but little empirical attention has been directed toward understanding the influence and mechanism of work support on team creativity. This study examined the effects of supervisory support and work group support on team creativity through team psychological safety in a sample of 226 employees in East China. We found that supervisory support and work group support were positively associated with team creativity, and these relationships were mediated by team psychological safety. We discuss implications of these results for research and practice.
