Abstract: Engaged employees are key human resources that help organizations sustain their competitive positions. The related literature has predominantly treated work engagement as an outcome variable. Going beyond this context, this research explores the consequences of work engagement. By investigating the outcomes, two important relational mechanisms namely LMX, OCB-I and one performance outcome, team work performance are introduced. Using full-time assessors from an HR consultancy company located in Istanbul, this research tests a moderated mediation mechanisms where LMX and OCB-I are relational resources that link work engagement to team work performance. Results revealed that engaged employees who enjoy high quality LMX with their supervisors are more likely to contribute to co-workers (OCB-I) which in turn predicts enhanced team work performance.
