Results TCI & comparison research vs, dev teams
Stronger pattern of relationships between TCI factors and innovation in research teams, probably because of greater scope and expectation to be innovative
In research teams, the 2 TCI dimensions support for innovation and task orientation yielded the strongest positive relationships with 3 indicators of innovation.

too much intragroup safety might reduce productive conflict and enhance conformity
