In today’s rapidly changing business environment, an organization’s ability to create and share knowledge is important for establishing and sustaining competitive advantage. This trend may explain a renewed interest in the research of knowledge processes of teams. This study adopts transactive memory system (TMS) system to explore knowledge processes of teams. TMS has three dimensions, including specialization, coordination, and credibility. Taken from Self Determination Theory (SDT), this research investigates how perceived related impacts the three TMS’s dimensions. This research conducted a field experiment and a total of 92 college students participated in an eight-week business simulation game. This study found that when team members perceive they are supported and connected by other people, the three dimensions of TMS in teams will be enhanced, which will in turn promote team performance. The managerial implications and research limitations conclude the study.
