Abstract
Suspicion has been linked to significant cognitive and behavioural effects, yet its influence in teams remains largely unexplored. We draw on the motivated information processing theory of groups (MIP-G) and interpersonal deception theory to develop a model of suspicion’s effect on team innovation through the mediating role of minority dissent. Further, in recognition of the potential dysfunctional role of suspicion and dissent, we explore an important moderator of this mediated path, inclusive leadership. Survey results from 76 healthcare teams lend support to our moderated mediation model. These results provide a valuable contribution to our understanding of the role of suspicion in team information-processing and innovation.
