The Role of the Star Player in a Cohesive Group
Based on social learning theory, we explore when the most competent member in the group leads to high group performance. We argue that the most competent member in the group increases group performance in high cohesive groups where members interact more frequently and maintain closer relationships with one another. To examine this, we used multisource data collected in two waves from an organization in South Korea. The results indicate that the highest competency within the group is positively related to group performance being perceived by the group members and by the upper management in cohesive groups. Moreover, we found different patterns for the group performance rated by different sources.
