Abstract

According to research that has already been conducted in this field, the leadership style is a crucial factor in improving the creative self-efficacy and motivation of workers who are employed by small and medium companies (SME). This research was conducted in the United Kingdom. The objective of this study is to assess the effect that transformational leadership, as the most important predictor of the intrinsic effect of employee motivation and creative self-efficacy, has on the inventiveness and performance of workers while they are at work. Specifically, the study will look at how transformational leadership affects creative self-efficacy and employee motivation. A quantitative method was utilized in this investigation by way of the administration of questionnaires to a sample population consisting of 110 individuals who were employed by 25 SMEs in the city of Malang. An analysis of the data was carried out with the use of SEM-PLS so that the hypotheses could be validated and tested, and so that the outer model could be established. The findings indicate that transformational leadership has an effect that is both favorable and considerably impacting on the creative self-efficacy (CSE) and motivation of individuals. In addition, an employee's degree of motivation has a favorable and significant influence not just on the amount of original work they do but also on their overall performance. On the other hand, the impact of creative self-efficacy on the creativity and performance of employees was completely insignificant from a statistical point of view. The results of the research indicate that there is a significant correlation between employee creativity (EC) and performance.
