Abstract
With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, companies pursue innovation and opportunities, and corporate performance is also newly defined. As a result, the demand for new leadership is stronger. This paper conducted an empirical analysis to examine the role of team efficacy between entrepreneurial leadership and team performance. Using the SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 20.0 Statistics Package, 530 members in 79 work teams in China collected data was analyzed. The results showed that entrepreneurial leadership has a positive (+) effect on team performance, and team efficacy has a partial mediating effect between entrepreneurial leadership and team performance. This study deepened the understanding of entrepreneurial leadership and revealed the importance of entrepreneurial leadership in organizations. Future research can focus on multi-level research involving self-efficacy and individual entrepreneurial intent.
