Abstract
With the growing attention on the competitive advantage in organizations, so has

the attention on the field of creativity in an organizational setting. In this study,

we investigate whether team autonomy or task interdependence has an effect on

the relationship between employee creativity and team creativity. We propose a

model where team autonomy and task interdependence works as moderators on

the relationship between employee creativity and team creativity. In order to

explore the relationship, we applied data collected from a two-staged survey. The

survey had a total of 78 participants, consisting of 48 employees and 30 leaders,

from 29 Norwegian based companies in the creative field. Through regression

analysis, the results from the data collection showed that the relationship between

employee creativity and team creativity was non-significant. The results also

showed that the moderating effect of team autonomy and task interdependence on

the relationship between employee creativity and team creativity was nonsignificant.

The findings indicate that employee creativity may not necessarily

lead to team creativity. Future research is recommended to investigate its

boundary conditions. Discussion of our findings, implications and directions for

future research is deliberated.
