Abstract
Teams are the most basic management unit to implement human resource (HR) practices. Team leaders’ HR attributions have a significant impact on the implementation of these HR practices. By distinguishing the HR attributions of team leaders and employees, we divide the HR attributions of team leaders into two dimensions, including commitment and control attributions. In this Chapter, we argue that there is a cause-effect relationship between team leaders’ HR attributions and their commitment or control-oriented behavior, and these relationships result in different effects on teams and employees. This Chapter attempts to offer an integrative framework of team leaders’ HR attributions in relation to its antecedents, mediators, and outcomes. Through building this framework, we aim to help researchers and practitioners establish a comprehensive understanding of team leader HR attributions, which can contribute to both HR theory and practices.
