"Unleashing Innovation In Modern Workplace: Leveraging Transformational Leadership And Innovative Work Behaviour"

Abstract

Firms are increasingly recognizing the need to encourage innovative work behavior among their workers to preserve an advantage in today's rapidly evolving business landscape. The possibility of organizations increasingly hinges on innovative endeavors. Scholars assert that, in contrast to self-determination or psychological empowerment, is especially successful in encouraging follower inventive behavior. However, there is little and contradictory empirical support for this relationship. From this study, we suggest that transformational leadership is linked to employee(follower) innovative work behavior, and it is mediated by employee self-determination. The study also makes an effort to present a rational and detailed understanding of how self-determination acts as a mediating component in transformational leadership, encouraging employees in particular industries to engage in innovative work behavior. Data from 118 followers working for different companies were gathered through the disproportionate quota sampling to test the theory. Self-determination theory and transformational leadership theory are used in this article to support the correlation between transformational leadership, creative workplace behavior. The findings from the body of research have significant impacts on organizations seeking to cultivate innovation within their workforce. The study's conclusions demonstrate a beneficial relationship with employees' self-determination and innovative employee work behavior and transformational leadership style. ANOVA, correlation, and reliability statistics were utilized as a research method to determine how the variables in this study related to one another.
