Abstract

The roles of transformational leadership can affect the innovation work behaviors of employees in various ways. If the employees are aware of the transformational leadership of their supervisors such as encouraging or promoting the employees to be creative in work or finding new ways to solve problems arising from work, it will stimulate employees to have the innovation work behaviors. This is because the innovation work behaviors is based on creating new ideas for work. However, if the leaders in the organizations do not support or encourage employees in their organizations to create new ideas, the work behavior in creating innovation will not happen. It will also affect the competence of the organization so that the organization cannot compete with the competitors having constant organizational development.
