Abstract

This study examines the moderation effect of perceived leader legitimacy on the relationship between transformational leadership and employee creativity. This moderation analysis included 26 leader-follower dyads, out of a total sample size of 166 participants. The study entailed a cross-sectional design with Dutch speaking participants living and working in the Netherlands. The results yielded no significant effects on any of the hypothesized relationships, apart from the additional exploratory analysis which revealed a significant effect between perceived leader legitimacy and self-efficacy as the mediator. However, the additional exploratory analysis did not help to conclude any effects of transformational leadership and legitimacy on employee creativity. Given the small sample size of 26 dyads, any conclusions drawn based on the results of this study should be interpreted with caution. Future research should investigate potential other explanatory variables before drawing more detailed conclusions about associations between the variables examined in this study.
