Abstract

There is a consensus that leadership has a powerful multi-level influence on learning and innovation. Yet, the literature has not adequately addressed this issue. Recent evidence of the influence of knowledge leadership on innovation only applies to a limited and simple conceptualization of the construct. Drawing from organizational learning theory, we contribute by conceptualizing and operationalizing a four-dimensional model of knowledge leadership behaviors. We empirically verify the dimensions using confirmatory factor analysis. We test and find support for the relationship between unit-level knowledge leadership and organizational innovation mediated by unit-level knowledge sharing. We discuss contributions, findings, limitations, and future research directions.
