Abstract
We draw upon social functional theory of gossip to theorize that team gossip buffers the harmful effects of team abusive supervision on team performance and team voluntary turnover via a dual-path mechanism: aggressive team norms and affective team trust. To test our hypotheses, we conducted a multi-wave, multi-source field study with a sample of 111 work teams. The results largely supported our model, showing that team members' negative gossip about the abusive team leader is a powerful tool to mitigate abusive supervision's detrimental consequences for team effectiveness.
