The results of the empirical analysis based on 267 questionnaires from 72 teams show that: transactive memory system can effectively improve team initiative and team decision performance; Team initiative has a positive and significant effect on team decision-making performance; Team initiative plays a mediating role in the positive effect of expertise and credibility of transactive memory system on team decision performance. This study reveals the influence mechanism of transactive memory system on team decision performance, and provides practical guidance for entrepreneur teams to improve team decision performance by using transactive memory system in uncertain environment.
