Abstract

PurposeThis study seeks to investigate how leader ability and diverse organisational cultures (OC) act to influence employee creativity in manufacturing organisations. By leveraging the multifaceted nature of the competing values framework (CVF), this study examines the growing deterioration of employee creativity through the lens of four OC quadrants within the Nigerian manufacturing industry and further investigates how distinct OCs and leader ability can aid to bolster employee creativity. The CVF is a model used to assess organisational cultures, irrespective of their industry, for the overarching purpose of improving organisational performance.Design/methodology/approachThe target population consists of employees of research and development (R&D) and information technology (IT) in the headquarters of 21 manufacturing organisations. Our useable sample consisted of 439 responses from the Nigerian manufacturing industry.FindingsResults indicated that leader ability and adhocracy OC have positive effects on employee creativity. Market and clan OC have negative effects on employee creativity. Likewise, leader ability dampens the effects of adhocracy OC on employee creativity and reinforces the market OC effect on employee creativity.Originality/valueThis study provides novel insights that challenges several controversial and contemporary postulations of extant research which theorise the OC–employee creativity relationships. By leveraging the construct of leader ability, unique contributions are also made to provoke congruence.

组织文化与领导能力对员工创造力的诱发效应

目的本研究旨在探讨领导能力和多元组织文化(OC)如何影响制造业组织的员工创造力。通过利用竞争价值框架(CVF)的多面性，本研究通过尼日利亚制造业内四个OC象限的镜头检查了员工创造力的日益恶化，并进一步调查了不同的OC和领导者能力如何有助于增强员工创造力。CVF是一个用于评估组织文化的模型，无论其行业如何，其首要目的是提高组织绩效。设计/方法/途径目标人群包括21家制造组织总部的研发(R&D)和信息技术(IT)员工。我们的可用样本包括来自尼日利亚制造业的439份回复。研究结果表明，领导能力和敬业度对员工创造力有正向影响。市场OC和宗族OC对员工创造力有负向影响。同样，领导能力也会抑制柔性OC对员工创造力的影响，强化市场OC对员工创造力的影响。原创性/价值本研究提供了新颖的见解，挑战了现有研究中一些有争议的当代假设，这些假设将oc -员工创造力关系理论化。通过利用领导能力的结构，也做出了独特的贡献，以激发一致性。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
