Abstract: This study investigates the impact of role overload and innovation fatigue on team viability. A quantitative survey of team members who are knowledge workers was conducted, and 207 participants were surveyed. The results show that, while role overload does not directly affect team viability, innovation fatigue has a significant negative impact. Further analysis demonstrates that innovation fatigue mediates the relationship between role overload and team viability. These findings demonstrate that team management strategies should include employees’ innovation fatigue interventions and effectively manage role demands to ensure a successful team’s future. In addition, the study advances the theoretical and practical understanding of the effects of work stressors on team viability, emphasising the importance of addressing demanding work tasks in knowledge-intensive organisational environments.
