Resumo(s)
Task complexity is one of the main factors studied by academics and is at the center of
leaders’ concerns. It is related to delegation and flexibility, which are enhanced by workers’ engage ment and depend on how leadership is shared. In this context, this research was carried out with
the main objective of testing the serial mediating effect of engagement and shared leadership on the
relationship between task complexity and flexibility and the relationship between task complexity and
delegation. The sample for this study consists of 368 participants, all of whom work in organizations
based in Portugal. The results indicate that task complexity is positively and significantly associated
with engagement, shared leadership, flexibility, and delegation. Shared leadership has a positive
and significant association with flexibility and delegation. The serial mediating effect of engagement
and shared leadership on the relationship between task complexity and flexibility was confirmed.
The serial mediating effect of engagement and shared leadership on the relationship between task
complexity and delegation was not confirmed.
