Abstract

The purpose of this study is to ascertain factors which influence employee creativity and innovative work behaviour with the help of paternalistic leadership style, trust in leadership, employee motivation to learn and employee voice. Aside of direct relationship, openness to experience is studied as moderating variable between employee creativity and innovative work behaviour. Data were analysed with structural equation modelling (SEM). Findings of this research revealed that moral leadership, benevolent leadership, authoritarian leadership, motivation to learn, trust in leadership and employee voice explained 53.6% variance in employee creativity. Therefore, the innovative work behaviour was measured with employee creativity and openness to experience and showed 54.5% variance in innovative work behaviour. The effect size analysis f2 indicates that moral leadership has substantial effect size to predict employee creativity. This study concludes that employee creativity, moral leadership, openness to experience, benevolent leadership and motivation to learn are essential factors for managerial consideration.
