Popis: More and more enterprise organizations adopt the form of team structure, and team faultlines has become an unavoidable problem in team management. This research constructs the theoretical model based on the relationship between team faultlines, team conflict, team performance and shared objectives. Based on the internal influence of team faultlines on team performance, two variables of team conflict and shared objectives are introduced. Team faultlines are divided into social categorization faultlines and information processing faultlines. The empirical results show that the social categorization faultlines and information processing faultlines have negative impacts on the team performance. The team conflict plays a mediation role in the process of the impact of the social categorization faultlines and the information processing faultlines on the team performance. The shared objectives plays a moderation role in the process of the impact of the social categorization faultlines and the information processing faultlines on the team performance. This research explores the mechanism of team faultlines on team performance, and according to the results proposed to some relevant suggestions to strengthen team management.
