Abstract

We proposed a 3-way interaction between empowering leadership, intrinsic motivation, and task visibility to predict employee creativity. Participants were 224 employee–leader dyads working in South Korean firms. Results showed that in situations of high task visibility, empowering leadership related more positively to creativity for employees with low rather than high motivation. In contrast, in situations low in task visibility, empowering leadership related more positively to creativity for employees with high rather than low motivation. Thus, our results confirmed the importance of the 3 factors for enhancing employee creativity.
