Abstract

Management strategies and leadership models can influence employee performance and productivity. Competent human resources are crucial assets for the stability and growth of the banking sector. HRD employees play a vital role in managing human resources in the banking industry. Research on HRD employees is necessary to analyze the impact of management strategies on performance and productivity. Empowering leadership is one leadership model believed to enhance employee engagement, knowledge sharing, and innovative behavior. The primary objective of this study is to examine the role of empowering leadership in increasing these behaviors. The study's respondents consisted of 175 HRD employees from private banking industries in Indonesia. The data were processed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Several findings from this study indicate that empowering leadership positively influences employee engagement and innovative behavior. Additionally, knowledge sharing has a positive effect on innovative behavior. However, empowering leadership does not have a direct positive impact on knowledge sharing unless mediated by employee engagement. Moreover, empowering leadership positively affects innovative behavior when mediated through two sequential mediators: employee engagement and knowledge sharing. The managerial implications of this study suggest that implementing an empowering leadership model can foster recognition, emotional support, and career development, thereby enhancing employee engagement. This, in turn, motivates employees to share experiences and information, which can support their creativity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of authentic leadership on psychological capital, work engagement, and innovative behavior among employees in service-based startup companies in Indonesia. In addition, this study examines the mediating role of psychological capital in the relationship between authentic leadership and work engagement, as well as the mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between authentic leadership and innovative behavior. This research uses a quantitative approach with a survey method involving 140 employees selected through purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 4.0. The results show that authentic leadership has a positive and significant effect on psychological capital and work engagement. Psychological capital also has a significant positive effect on work engagement and acts as a partial mediator in the relationship between authentic leadership and work engagement. Furthermore, work engagement has a strong positive effect on innovative behavior and mediates the relationship between authentic leadership and innovative behavior. These findings indicate that authentic leadership plays a strategic role in enhancing employees’ psychological conditions and engagement, which in turn fosters innovative behavior. This study contributes to the development of human resource management and organizational behavior literature, particularly in the context of dynamic startup environments.
