Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of two main factors, namely Transformational Leadership (X1) and Information Technology (X2), on the Innovation Climate (Y1) and Innovative Work Behavior (Y2) in the organizational environment. Quantitative methods were used in this study, with the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) version 4 analysis tool, to analyze the relationship between the proposed variables. Data is collected through a survey of employees from various backgrounds and levels within the organization. This study proposes five hypotheses, tested through data analysis using the PLS-SEM approach. The trial was carried out twice to ensure the stability and consistency of the results. The results of the study show that Transformational Leadership has a significant positive effect on the Innovation Climate in organizations. In addition, Information Technology also has a strong positive impact on the Innovation Climate. These results indicate that leaders who apply a transformational leadership style and utilize information technology can encourage a positive culture of innovation within the organization. Furthermore, this study reveals that the Innovation Climate has a significant favorable influence on Innovative Work Behavior. This suggests that employees are more likely to engage in innovative work behaviors when organizations create an environment that supports innovation. The results of this study have important practical implications for organizational management. Applying transformational leadership and investment in information technology can be a strategy to enhance a culture of innovation and innovative work behavior in the workplace. In addition, these findings can form the basis for more in-depth follow-up research on other factors that influence organizational innovation.
