| Abstract: | Over the past two decades, leadership concepts have emerged through the influence of complexity theory, such as the concept of shared leadership. Empirical research confirms the benefits of shared leadership in complex organisational environments. However, little is known about how shared leadership emerges. The aim of this thesis is to provide deeper insights into the emergence of shared leadership in complex environments such as product development project teams. The research question is how shared leadership emerges in product development project teams. In an exploratory multi–design case study with three product development project teams. The company in which the case study was conducted operates in the automotive industry and is an international engineering provider. The data was collected through semi–structured interviews, observation of team meetings, and internal project and team documents and analysed via the Gioia Methodology, a network analysis, the event–structure analysis and the qualitative content analysis. Based on the analysis, factors, relations between these factors and a process–orientated framework for the emergence of shared leadership was created. The originality of the research lies in the extension of the shared leadership theory to include the emergence phenomenon. The findings are relevant for researchers as they extend the theory of shared leadership in the project context by adding factors, their relationship and processes for the emergence of shared leadership. The findings may also be valuable for practitioners working in temporary complex organisations. My research can be generalised to other teams in product development projects and teams working in complex corporate environments. |
