Moderating Role

Purpose – This research aims to explore the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity. In addition, we intend to study the moderating role played by learning orientation in the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity. Design/methodology/approach – Data have been collected from employees working at the Airtel and Aircel call centers of J&K (India). A two-step approach to structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied. Confirmatory factor analysis was conducted to assess the proposed measurement model fit and construct validity. The structural model was generated to test the significance of the theoretical relationships. Findings – The results revealed that there is a positive relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity, and it is being moderated by learning orientation. Research limitations/implications – Although this study expands our knowledge about the role of learning orientation between transformational leadership and employee creativity, the prospects for further research are still present. The cross-sectional design of study might not have been able to extract the true essence of the cause-and-effect relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity. Practical implications – Transformational leaders promote followers’ creativity, so the management may find it valuable to invest in transformational leadership training for supervisors and team leaders, or use personality testing to screen for high-caliber candidates, who have high potential of becoming a transformational leader. The characteristics of a transformational leader, when coupled with the learning orientation of employees, yield positive results in the form of employee creativity, which managers can use to generate sustainable competitive advantages for their organizations. Originality/value – This paper is original, as it contributes to existing theory by establishing the moderating role played by learning orientation in between transformational leadership and employee creativity. The moderation has been proved via SEM with the help of latent constructs, which is seldom done.

The Relationship

Employees' learning orientation as a moderator in the relationship between transformational leadership and psychological empowerment Employees' learning orientation as a moderator in the relationship between transformational leadership and psychological empowerment Niek Faber, Onne Janssen & Tjeerd Bartlema, Gedrag & Organisatie, Volume 19, Maart 2006, nr. 1, pp. 22-36 Employees' learning orientation was hypothesized to enhance the positive relationship between transformational leadership and empowerment experienced by employees. As expected, a survey among 191 attendants of organizational-psychological training courses showed a positive relationship between transformational leadership and psychological empowerment. However, a learning orientation was found to serve as a substitute rather than an enhancer of the empowering effect of transformational leadership. More specifically, transformational leadership was strongly related to psychological empowerment for employees with a weak learning orientation. For employees with a strong learning orientation, transformational leadership had only a marginal relationship with psychological empowerment because these employees had already relatively high levels of empowerment induced by their learning orientation.
