Team Empowerment and Team Resilience

As business environments remain increasingly volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous, both team empowerment and team resilience have increased in importance for teams in organizations worldwide. We review the literatures on both team empowerment and team resilience over the past 15 years to uncover what has been learned about these two important team constructs. We discuss patterns and advancements in each area followed by a brief review of their intersection, including both commonalities and important differences. We then highlight directions for future research for each, followed by practical implications emanating from our review. In doing so, we provide a crucial roadmap for theoretical and empirical advancements for team empowerment and team resilience over the next decade.
