摘要：The interplay of diversity and leadership produces mixed findings inthe literature. Based on the categorization-elaboration model (CEM) and diversitymanagement (DM) literature, this study investigates the role of team leadership in adiverse ISD team. Further, this study examines the moderating roles of DM practicesin the relationships between group diversity, team leadership, and projectperformance.Method: This study selected a paired survey method to test the hypotheses. Eightytwo valid paired questionnaires were received from project managers and teammembers in ISD projects. In addition, this study used partial least squares (PLS) witha bootstrapping technique to examine the proposed model.Results: The results show that group diversity has mixed impacts on teamleadership. Furthermore, DM practices positively moderate the effect of valuediversity on team leadership, as value diversity is positively related to teamleadership when DM practices are more robust. At last, DM practices negativelymoderate the relationship between team leadership and project performance as theeffect of team leadership has weaker effects on project performance when DMpractices are strong than when the practices are weak.Conclusion: This study adds to the literature by examining team leadership in aheterogenous ISD team and providing empirical evidence for the moderating roles ofDM practices in team leadership processes.
