Organizational Innovativeness Climate (OIC) and Motivation to Learn (MTL) are identified as the main factors that drive innovation. Knowledge Sharing (KS) acts as a mediating variable in the relationship between the two factors and the innovative behaviour of lecturers.This study uses a quantitative method with the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach. Data collection techniques through questionnaire surveys with Proportional Stratified Random Sampling techniques. The results show that OIC and MTL have a significant influence on IWB and KS. KS is proven to be a mediating variable on the influence of MTL on IWB. However, Knowledge Sharing does not mediate the influence of OIC on IWB.
