1 th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences Exploring the Impact of Leadership Competencies on Team Social Capital and Performance in IT Service Team Jungwoo Lee Yonsei University Hyejung Lee ITRC, Yonsei University Jun-gi Park ITRC, Yonsei University Abstract This study applies social capital theory to IT service team environment. Research model of this study includes emotional, cognitive, and social intelligence competencies of project managers leading to project performance while team social capital posited as a mediator between competencies and performance. PLS analysis of 285 data points collected via a survey revealed: (1) emotional intelligence competencies directly influence project performance but maintains no indirect influence via team social capital, (2) social intelligence competencies indirectly and strongly influence project performance via the social capital among team members, but maintains no direct influence, and (3) cognitive intelligence competencies maintains both direct and indirect influence. Analysis also reveals that it takes time to grow team social capital. Teams involved in longer term IT service project maintains higher level of team social capital compared to shorter term projects. Implications of findings are discussed at the end, and further studies are suggested. 1. Introduction Today, firms push ahead with IT projects in order to gain a competitive edge, improve their competitiveness, launch a new business and introduce a management innovation. Firms' investments have increased as corporate-level IT projects are advanced and become larger in scale in today's complicated and globalized business environment. However, it is true that some of such projects fail to achieve adequate outcomes or ends in failure for their consumed budgets and human resources. IT projects in which considerable financial and human resources are invested have a great impact on business operations. As for firms, one of the underlying issues is what they should do to make their IT projects successful. In particular, Jursion [19] points out that selecting a competent project manager is very important in completing project tasks successfully. In a project that should accomplish its intended goals with limited time and resources compared to repetitive routine tasks, the project manager's position is very important because he/she has to control potential risks, manage a wide variety of activities properly in consultation with many different interested parties, and make decisions on overall matters of the project. Previous studies of IT projects' outcomes indicate that project performance is significantly influenced by project managers' competencies, roles and leadership [20]. In studies of project managers' leadership [20], one of the key success factors for projects, it has been traditionally described as their personal disposition (i.e., personality or style), but recently it is explained by a situational theory that leadership can vary depending on some external variables, or situations where leadership should be demonstrated. Noting that sufficiently competent project managers have a positive impact on project performance [1, 9, 17], there are ongoing studies of what leadership competencies the project managers should have. Meanwhile, some studies are being conducted on interactions between project team members for project success [20, 30]. If members of a project organization perform their roles effectively and bring favorable changes to one another, their project will produce successful outcomes [29]. In that the project's success or failure depends on the interactions between project members, emphasis is placed on the importance of elements such as the relationship, trust and consensus between team members. In this context, there are ongoing discussions about social capital formed in the reciprocal relationship between project members [30]. It is mainly discussed in studies [30] that explain the effective decisionmaking and continuous knowledge exchange and cooperation between project members as effects of accumulated social capital, but it does not seem that /12 $ IEEE DOI /HICSS

2 the role of social capital accumulated in project teams are studied in various aspects [26]. In this study we explore not only the relationship between project managers' leadership competencies and project performance, but also an empirical analysis of what role the project teams' social capital plays that relationship under the IT service team environment. 2. Literature review 2.1. Project manager s leadership competencies A project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to produce a unique product, service or result, and project management is defined as applying knowledge, skills, tools and techniques to project activities in order to meet project requirements [27]. Above all, to make a project successful, the project manager should have sufficient capability. This means that the manager's leadership is very important in effectively managing problems and risk factors occurring during the project and external customer satisfaction and internal intermember cooperation. In particular, the performance of an IT project is greatly influenced by the project manager's capability and leadership [28]. In general, the studies of project management leadership are represented by six theories [17]. In the 1940s through the 1960s, two major theories are the leadership trait theory assuming that leaders are born, not made, on the premise that there are common attributes among leaders, and the leadership behavior/style theory assuming that leaders have a specific pattern and style of behavior. Situational leadership theories which emerged in the 1960s and 1970s assume that leadership will depend on the situation [10, 18]. Major situational theories of leadership include Hershey & Blanchard's maturity theory [16] and House's path-goal theory [18]. The situational theories which are based on the concept that the effectiveness of leadership depends on the situation note that leadership demonstration is greatly influenced by situational factors such as members' characteristics, leader-member relationship, task characteristics and the nature and dimensions of organizational structure. In the 1980s and 1990s, there were many studies of visionary or charismatic leadership. Bass described leadership by classifying it into two types: transformational leadership that comprises charisma, individual consideration and intellectual stimulation and transactional leadership that emphasizes members' exchange of rewards for goal achievements [17]. In the late 1990s, the emotional intelligence theory began to draw attention. Goleman, Boyatzis & McKee [12] argue that leader s emotional intelligence has a greater influence on team performance than leader s intellectual capability. Their study divides emotional intelligence into four types self-awareness, selfmanagement, social awareness and relationship management and shows that there are clear correlations between emotional intelligence, leadership styles and organizational performance. Recent studies of project manager leadership tend to put more focus on leaders' competencies [1, 9, 17, 34]. Boyatsis [4] and Crawford [8] define competencies as the "knowledge, skills and personal characteristics to produce outstanding results." Turner [32] explains that knowledge and skills as competencies represent the intelligence, problemsolving and management skills discussed in leadership studies, whereas personal characteristics mean leaders' inborn qualities and emotions. Dulewicz and Higgs [17] classify the leadership competencies defined in the existing literature into four types cognitive, behavioral, emotional and motivational competencies and reconstitute a total of 15 subcompetencies into three main categories intellectual intelligence, managerial intelligence and emotional intelligence. Boyatzis & Ratti [5] compare and contrast the competencies of firms' effective and non-effective leaders through an empirical analysis and categorize the leadership competencies of project managers into three types: emotional, cognitive and social intelligence competencies. In their study, the emotional intelligence competencies include efficiency orientation, planning, initiative, attention to detail, flexibility, and self-confidence; cognitive intelligence competencies include as use of concepts, systems thinking, and pattern recognition; and social intelligence competencies include as empathy, persuasiveness, developing others, group management, networking, negotiating, oral communications, and social objectivity Team social capital The term social capital began to be widely used as it was defined as "the aggregate of actual or potential resources" by French sociologist Bourdieu [3]. Heo and Cheon [15] describe social capital as ties that involve a smaller number of routinized relationships and a larger number of solid networks in interpersonal friendship or acquaintance. Social capital is studied in a number of disciplines and has different definitions or concepts according to studies' objectives. This study attempted to explore the relationships between social capital, leadership competencies and organizational performance in teams

3 Studies of social capital in organizations [2] explain how an organization maintains a competitive advantage, based on social capital theory, and classify social capital into three dimensions; structural, relational and cognitive, according to the forms and contents of social relationships. The structural dimension refers to the overall pattern of connections between members; there are three major facets network ties, network configuration, and appropriable organization. And the relational dimension embraces the resources created through inter-member relationships, including trust, norms and identity. The third dimension of social capital, which is cognitive dimension relates to shared language and stories, including cultures, among organization members who form a relationship. In this way, studies of social capital have been attempted over a long period of time, but there are few studies of relationships between in-team social capital and leadership. There is a study that investigated social capital's mediating role through an empirical analysis in terms of the effects of person-environment fit and information systems acceptance factors on work performance and work satisfaction [15], but it provides an analysis of work satisfaction and performance at personal level and thus is not a study regarding the influence of organizational-level social capital on work performance. From a literature review on leadership and social capital, another study indicates that an increasing number of leadership studies place emphasis on social capital [25]. The study demonstrates that even though preferential focus is on human resources, the ability to manage social capital attracts more and more attention as a leadership competency and points out that there are still few studies that empirically analyze the causal relationship between social capital and leadership or their influence. In the sense of leadership, there is a study of project team trust [30] and an analytic study of social capital's mediating role [22]. Tansley & Newell [30] indicate that trust is needed to achieve performance success and social capital is an essential prerequisite for that. In other words, leadership competencies should work to strengthen social capital inside a project team by building and enhancing trust to improve its performance and achieve project success. Hyejung Lee et al. [22] present the direct and indirect effects the social capital has on project performance according to leadership styles and report the results of an empirical analysis of social capital's mediating roles in leadership competencies and their intensity levels. 3. Research model and Hypotheses 3.1. Research model The purpose of this study is to verify the influence a project manager's leadership competencies in an IT project have on his/her team's social capital and project performance. For the purpose, this study reviewed many previous studies of project managers' leadership or competencies and classified, based on the findings of the review, project manager leadership competencies into three types: emotional, cognitive and social intelligence. These three types of leadership competencies were set as independent variables. Network ties, shared language and trust were selected as primary constructs for determining team-level social capital. Project performance was set as a dependent variable, and some hypotheses were formulated on relationships between those variables. Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of the research model for this study Hypotheses Figure 1. Research model In order to verify the variables included in the research model, the study set up hypotheses with regard to major factors working between independent variables (project manager's emotional, cognitive, and social intelligence), a mediating variable (team social capital) and a dependent variable (project performance), based on their theoretical relevance Project managers leadership competencies and project performance. In a project that has to accomplish its desired performance with limited time and resources, the project manager's role is important for the project to be successful [20]. In particular, the performance of IT projects is greatly influenced by the competencies and leadership skills of project managers [19, 28]. For that reason, there have been studies conducted on what leadership competencies should be retained by project managers [1, 4, 5, 9, 17, 32]. In this context, the present study divided leadership competencies into three categories emotional, cognitive and social intelligence based on the results

4 of Boyatzis and Sala's and Boyatzis and Ratti's studies [4, 5]. The following hypotheses were formulated to verify the influence the leadership competencies in each category have on project performance: H1a. A project manager's emotional intelligence has a positive (+) influence on project performance. H1b. A project manager's cognitive intelligence has a positive (+) influence on project performance. H1c. A project manager's social intelligence has a positive (+) influence on project performance Project managers leadership competencies and team social capital. When a project manager has exhibited a proper type of leadership, it allows the project team to build up social capital; such as network relationship, shared language and trust, has a critical influence on project performance [30]. What role a project manager plays influences the interactions inside his/her team and determines project performance is determined by the same [26]. This suggests that the project manager's leadership competencies influence the team social capital. One study emphasizes that, in provisional organizations like project teams, leadership competencies are effective for performance creation and maintenance when they consist of elements related to building, maintaining and managing social capital performance [25]. The following hypotheses were proposed to verify the correlations between managers' leadership competencies and social capital: H2a. A project manager's emotional intelligence has a positive (+) influence on the team social capital. H2b. A project manager's cognitive intelligence has a positive (+) influence on the team social capital. H2c. A project manager's social intelligence has a positive (+) influence on the team social capital Team social capital and project performance. An empirical study of the relationship between social capital and project performance [31] argues that proactive members tend to take advantage of the support and social relations of other fellow members suitable for their desired goals. Social capital among members was found to have a significant effect on the enhancement of job performance [2]. So to speak, organizational performance can be formed by knowledge creation resulting from members' personal qualities and interactions between them and be maximized in positive reciprocal relationships between them. Therefore, this study conducted an empirical analysis of relationships between project teams' social capital and project performance, based on the findings of previous studies, by framing the following hypothesis: H3. A project team social capital has a positive (+) influence on project performance. 4. Methodology 4.1. Data collection and characteristics of samples Data collection was carried out twice at different times. First, data were collected from 183 participants in 25 IT projects performed in 2010 by A company, a global electronic components manufacturer with about 10,000 employees. A questionnaire survey was conducted online of individual project members in November A total of 133 questionnaires were returned, representing a response rate of 72.7 percent, but we used a total of 120 completed questionnaires for data analysis after excluding those that had any missing responses or were inappropriate for the analysis. The second data collection used a sample of 192 participants in 15 IT projects performed in Likewise, an online questionnaire survey was conducted of the project participants in January A total of 172 questionnaires were returned, yielding a response rate of 89.6 percent, but the data analysis was performed with 165 of the returned questionnaires, after excluding those that had any missing responses or were inappropriate for the analysis. As a result, the final analysis used data collected from 285 people who had participated in 40 IT projects. Table 1 shows the characteristics of projects in which questionnaire respondents participated. Category Project Size Project Term Project Type Project Role Table 1.

5 4.2. Operational definitions of variables In this study, the operational definitions of measures and the measurement items are as follows: First, a project manager's competencies were defined as the competencies of emotional intelligence, cognitive intelligence and social intelligence, based on the results of Boyatzis's study [4, 5]. Emotional intelligence was defined as the ability to recognize, understand, and use emotional information about oneself that leads to or causes effective or superior performance and measured via five items. Cognitive intelligence was defined as the ability to think or analyze information and situations that leads to or causes effective or superior performance via six items. Social intelligence was defined as the ability to recognize, understand and use emotional information about others that leads to or causes effective or superior performance and measured via five items. Second, a team social capital was defined as a set of network ties, trust and shared language, based on the studies by Bolino et al. [2] and Heo and Cheon [15]. Network ties represent close relationships between members in a project team, or the degree of cooperation for frequent communication and interaction with other members, and trust refers to the trust that project team members place in their coworkers or supervisors. Shared language means the use of common and meaningful terms in interactions between project team members, meaningful communication pattern, and message understandability. Each item measuring team social capital was adapted from existing literature. Finally, project performance was measured in terms of the perceived efficiency and effectiveness of the project phase from Henderson and Lee [14]. Dimensions of efficiency include productivity of the team's operation and adherence to budget and schedule. Measures of effectiveness include the quality of deliverables. See Appendix 1 for the details of measurement items and existing literature sources. 5. Results 5.1. Analysis methods A partial least squares (PLS) analysis was performed to test the research model. The PLS analysis is a component-based approach and thus does not have strict requirements for sample size and residual distribution [23]. Another advantage of the PLS analysis is that it can evaluate a theoretical structural model and a measurement model simultaneously [7]. Due to the large-scale survey and the complex data collection process of eliciting participation of IS project, the sample size for the final analysis was acceptable at a modest level, making the PLS appropriate for testing our model. We used Smart PLS for analyzing the models. Furthermore, in measuring project performance, particularly IT project performance like information system development, the project duration is used as a key indicator [21, 24, 28, 33]. Accordingly, this study conducted an additional analysis to determine whether project durations make differences to the influence of project managers' leadership competencies on social capital and project performance. All study sample projects were analyzed first regardless of their durations, and then by their average duration (six months) those sample projects were divided into two groups: 159 short-term projects (55.8%) of less than six months and 126 long-term projects (44.2%) of six or more months. A study further analysis of them was conducted to examine differences between two groups Measurement model Gefen and Straub conclude that it is indispensable in a PLS analysis to assess convergent validity and discriminant validity [13]. This study performed a confirmatory factor analysis to determine whether measurement variables were properly loaded onto their constructs. And then, we have conducted the convergent and discriminant validity Convergent validity analysis. Convergent validity refers to the degree to which a measure is correlated with other measures that it is theoretically predicted to correlate with. This implies that the measurement variables of each potential construct should be loaded with significant t-values. For the PLS-based analysis of convergent validity, this study conducted a confirmatory factor analysis and examined the size of factor loadings for the relevant variable of each measurement item. If the factor loading between the measurement item and variable is 0.7 or more, the item is considered valid [6]. In our final results, all relevant loadings were more than 0.7, as can be seen in Table. The internal consistency of measurement items was assessed by measuring the average variance extracted (AVE), composite reliability and Cronbach's [11]. From the measurements, both the composite reliability and Cronbach's were found to have values of more than 0.7, and , respectively, and the values for AVE ranged between , greater than the threshold of 0.5. These findings indicate that the measurement items have convergent validity

6 Discriminant validity analysis. Discriminant validity refers to the low correlations that should exist between different measurements designed to measure different constructs. The correlation coefficients of potential variables should show an appropriate pattern of factor loadings, and the measurement items should be highly loaded onto allocated factors. In PLS, discriminant validity can be deemed adequate when the square roots of AVE values are greater than correlation coefficients between variables [11]. Table 2 shows the correlation coefficients between variables, and the values in the diagonal are the square roots of AVEs. As indicated in the table, square-rooted AVE values are greater than other correlation coefficients, and thus the requirements for discriminant validity are satisfied Analysis of the structural model With adequate measurement models, the hypotheses proposed in our study were tested using PLS. The significance of all paths in each model was tested using the bootstrap procedure with re-sampling of 500. A structural model is used to represent a set of dependent relationships between potential variables, or correlations between variables. The structural model calculates measurement coefficients and the standard error and t-value for each coefficient. This study performed a two-tailed test at a 5% significance level in case of t-value 1.96 [13]. Table 2.

7 Combines IS project s perspective. Results of PLS analysis is presented in Figure 2. Path coefficients are the standardized beta coefficients from the PLS analysis. As expected, Emotional intelligence competency ( = 0.228, p<0.01) and cognitive intelligence competency ( = 0.220, p<0.05) displayed a significant and positive relation to project performance. Thus, H1a and H1b were supported. But social intelligence competency had no effect on project performance. Hence, H1c was not supported. Emotional intelligence competency did not significantly impact team social capital, so H2a was not supported. Regarding H2b, which deals with the relation between cognitive intelligence competency and team social capital, the resulting coefficient provided support ( = 0.379, p<0.01). Social intelligence competency maintained a positive impact on team social capital ( = 0.405, p<0.01), supporting H2c. Likewise, team social capital had a significant positive relationship with project performance ( = 0.527, p<0.01). So, H3 was supported as well. Squared multiple correlations (R2) for endogenous constructs are presented in Figure 2. R2 measures the percent of variance explained by independent constructs in the model. Independent constructs were found to explain substantial portion of variance in dependent constructs. It is also found that Project manager leadership explains 52.7 percent of variance in project performance and 59.3 percent of variance in team social capital. Figure 2. Results of PLS run for Combined IS projects Long-term IS project s perspective. Figure 3 shows the results based on the point of view of longterm IS projects; it includes the path loadings, t-values of the paths, and R-square values. Four out of seven of the hypothesized paths were found to be significant at different levels. Emotional intelligence competency was found to be positively associated with project performance ( = 0.258, p<0.05) but did not significantly impact team social capital. Hence H1a was supported while H2a was not. Cognitive intelligence competency was found to be significantly related to team social capital ( = 0.345, p<0.05) but it had insignificant effect on project performance. As a result, H1b was not supported while H2b was. Finally, Social intelligence competency was significantly associated with team social capital. However it had no effect on project performance, thus the results did not support H1c but did H2c. Our results showed that team social capital played a significant role for project performance ( = 0.454, p<0.01), as expected. Hence H3 was supported. Project manager's competency and team social capital variables accounted for 54.2 percent of variance in project performance. It is also found that a project manager's competency variables explained 19.6 percent of variance in team social capital. Figure 3. Results of PLS run for Long-term IS projects Short-term IS project s perspective. The proposed model was then tested using the data collected from IS projects under six months as shown in Figure4. Out of the seven proposed hypotheses, five were supported. The effect of emotional intelligence competency was significantly related to project performance ( = 0.233, p<0.05), but it had insignificant effect on team social capital. Thus, H1a was supported while H2a was not. Cognitive intelligence competency was found to be positively associated with project ( = 0.384, p<0.01) and team social capital ( = 0.400, p<0.01), as expected. Hence, H1b and H2b were supported. Social intelligence competency was found to be significantly related to team social capital ( = 0.394, p<0.01) but did not significantly impact project performance. As a result, H1c was not supported while H2c was. Finally, the level of achieving project performance is significantly affected by the degrees of team social capital ( = 0.297, p<0.01). Thus, H3 was supported. Project manager's competency variables and team social capital explain 54.2 percent of variance in project performance and team social capital was accounted for

8 64.3 percent of variance in project manager's competency. Figure 4. Results for PLS run for Short-term IS projects 6. Conclusions This study measures IT project managers' leadership competencies with three underlying constructs - emotional, cognitive and social intelligence competencies - and empirically explores the influence of these competencies on project performance through the formation of team social capital. Data has been collected through a survey. PLS analysis of the research model revealed that project managers' emotional and intellectual intelligence leadership competencies maintain direct and significant influences on project performance while social intelligence competencies reveal no direct influence on project performance. However, when the mediating effects of team social capital was taken into consideration, project managers' the team social capital only mediates intellectual and social intelligence competencies while not the emotional intelligence competencies. PM s emotional intelligence competences may directly help the team performing better, as PM is attentive to team members emotion. However, when it comes to cognitive and social intelligence competencies of PM, these help team to perform better, not directly but only through raising the level of team social capital as teamwork grow. Cognitive or social intelligence competencies maintain no direct influence on project performance but only through team social capital. Project managers' leadership is a key factor for project success, and therefore it is very important to select competent managers especially in IT projects [19]. In this study, we found that project performance was directly influenced by project managers' emotional intelligence competencies (i.e., personal qualifications such as as efficiency orientation, planning, initiative, attention to detail, flexibility, and self-confidence) and their cognitive intelligence competencies (i.e., the capabilities to understand projects and perform work such as the use of concepts, systematic thinking and pattern recognition), while influenced indirectly by social intelligence competencies (i.e., the capabilities concerning networking, empathy with others, negotiating, persuasiveness and managing members relations) only through growing team social capital. It is particularly noteworthy that intellectual intelligence exerted both direct and indirect effects and thus had a greater influence on project performance than the other two competency types. Meanwhile, from a view of organizational environments, project managers' leadership competencies are emerging as an important element that helps forming team social capital among members, and it is therefore necessary to find institutional and technical ways to build team social capital as part of leadership development [25]. In this study, although social intelligence competencies of PM concerning members interactions had no direct influence on project performance, managers' social and cognitive intelligence competencies were found to contribute to project performance by influencing social capital among members. In other words, leaders with high cognitive and social intelligence can have a positive influence on their project teams' social capital and ultimately help their teams accumulate the capabilities to implement projects successfully. However, the study found that leaders being effective only in emotional intelligence were highly likely to complete projects successfully but made few or no contributions to the accumulation of social capital in their teams. This suggests that if a project manager is replaced or a new project is followed up, project success should rely on the manager's emotional intelligence again without social capital accumulated in the team. However, the suggestion needs to be validated through future qualitative analyses and observations of longer-term projects. Project durations were associated with a striking difference in the direct influence of cognitive intelligence competencies on project performance. In short-term projects of less than six months, cognitive intelligence had a significant influence on project performance like in the integrated model, but long-term projects were found to lose the influence of cognitive intelligence. In other words, the study findings indicate that managers' cognitive intelligence is a factor that can produce direct performance in short-term projects, whereas in longer-term projects the elements such as team-level social capital work to drive project success as accumulated in project teams. Social intelligence was found to have no direct influence on project performance regardless of project durations. This is not

9 to say that managers' sociality is irrelevant to performance. Our study results showed that social intelligence could ultimately serve as a factor for project success by continuing to have a positive influence on team social capital, irrespective of project durations. Finally, managers' emotional intelligence was found to have a direct influence on project performance at all times, irrespective of project durations. From the results of this study discussed above, it can be concluded that emotional intelligence and social intelligence as project manager leadership competencies are in a trade-off relationship and all the three types of leadership competencies ultimately have an influence on project performance. We partially verified the theory that social capital in a project team is formed under the influence of project manager's leadership competencies and subsequently can influence project performance. So far, there have been not many studies of social capital, and in particular few studies have attempted to empirically analyze the mediating roles of team-level social capital formed between project managers' leadership competencies and performance. This study examined the relationships in which project managers' competencies influenced project performance by way of social capital and has academic significance in such context. In active businesses, it is important to appoint competent managers for making tasks or projects successful. As indicated by the results of this study, a project can be successfully delivered in the short run through a manager with outstanding cognitive intelligence. However, cognitive intelligence has limits in the long run. Businesses need to seek short-term success using intellectually competent leaders and simultaneously pay attention to the formation of team social capital which is the process of internally accumulating their know-how and capabilities for success so as not to be affected by the drop-out or absence of managers. In the future there is a need to select and cultivate project managers with balanced skills and abilities to promote the interaction between members and the accumulation of knowledge. The present study used cross-sectional questionnaire surveys to verify hypothetical relationships covering the types of leadership competencies, team social capital and project performance. Therefore, this study has a limitation because it verified the phenomena of a certain period of time. Future studies need to examine the relationships between leadership competencies and team social capital from a long-term perspective and further explore the mechanisms of social capital formation in addition to simple influence relationships. The results of this study will provide insights for future qualitative and quantitative research attempts to analyze factors influenced by team-level social capital and leadership competencies. 7.
