As interdependence and co-responsibility are characteristics of each working group, the enterprises tend to evaluate the competency within the internal groups based on group-learning, group-collaboration and achievements. However, the interdependence is the most important feature of the group. In general, the leader plays the most crucial role in guiding the group during the run-in period. Hence, this study based on related literature is targeting the newly-employed leaders whose experiences on the position are less than a year. The designed independent variables of the questionnaire are group personality heterogeneity, people heterogeneity and group values heterogeneity. The dependent variable is the group absence, and the mediation effect is the group cohesion. In this study, 305 questionnaires were passed out to 47 groups from the indirect departments of manufacturing industries, including 47 leaders and 258 followers. 238 questionnaires from 43 groups were returned. The overall response rate is 91.5% for the indirect departments and 78% for the individuals. The final valid questionnaires are 218 from 41 groups. The effective response rate is 95.3% for the indirect departments and 91.6% for the individuals. The findings of the study are as followed: 1.The appetence heterogeneity of group personality has more impact on group cohesion. 2.The group cohesion is conducive to reduce the group absence rate. 3.The mediation effect of group cohesion toward personality heterogeneity, people heterogeneity and group absence is partial.
