  • “We’ve Got Creative Differences”: The Effects of Task Conflict and Participative Safety on Team Creative Performance

    November 20, 2013 Editor 0

    Abstract Although both participative safety and team task conflict are widely thought to be related to team creative performance, the nature of this relationship is still not well understood, and prior studies have frequently yielded conflicting results.
