Moderating Effect of Servant Leadership on the Motivation Mechanism of Organizational Innovation Climate Affecting Employees' Innovation Behavior

Employee innovative behavior is the basis of enterprise innovation, and creating an organizational innovation climate is a common way for enterprises to promote employee innovation behavior. The empirical results obtained from the first-hand research data show that (1) intrinsic motivation and self-efficacy mediate the effect of organizational innovation climate on employees' innovative behavior separately; (2) servant leadership moderates the relationship between organizational innovation climate and self-efficacy across levels, and the positive effect of organizational innovation climate on self-efficacy is stronger in the context of high servant leadership, but servant leadership has no effect on the relationship between organizational innovation climate and intrinsic motivation; (3) servant leadership also moderates the mediating effect of self-efficacy between organizational innovation climate and individual innovative behavior, and the mediating effect of self-efficacy is stronger in the context of high servant leadership, but the mediating effect of intrinsic motivation cannot be moderated by servant leadership.
