创造型领导力对下属创造力的影响研究:量表开发与验证

The Influence of Creative Leadership on Employee Creativity:Scale Development and Validation

组织越来越重视和追求创新,领导也需要更多创造力来面对日益复杂的决策环境。本研究提出"创造型领导力"来描述工作情境中领导通过发挥自己的创造力来影响下属和组织的行为或表现,并探讨了创造型领导力对下属创造力的影响。研究一使用三个独立样本开发了创造型领导力的量表,验证性因子分析确定了创造型领导力表现的两个维度:"创造型的工作者"和"创造型的管理者"。研究二通过244份领导—下属的配对问卷检验了创造型领导力对下属创造力的影响。研究发现,创造型领导力可以通过下属的创造性自我效能和领导认同影响创造力;下属的创造力目标设定能够调节创造性自我效能和领导认同对创造力的影响。最后,本文讨论了研究的理论和实践意义。

As creativity and innovation become increasingly important in organizations,leaders need more creativity to deal with the complex decision conditions. The present study initiates the construct of ＂creative leadership＂,which refers to the creative characteristics and behaviors of leaders in working context. In study 1,we use 3 independent samples to develop the measurement of creative leadership.Confirmatory factor analyses support a two-factor model of creative leadership,including ＂creative worker＂and ＂creative manager＂. In study 2,we examine the positive relationship between creative leadership and employee creativity. Results show that employee creative self-efficacy and leader identification mediate this relationship; and the effects of creative self-efficacy and leader identification on creativity will be stronger when the level of employee creative goal setting is high. Theoretical contributions and practical implications are discussed in the end.
