<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effect of competence on innovative work behavior among university lecturers in Jember Regency. This research employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 322 lecturers in Jember Regency selected using an accidental sampling technique. The instruments used in this study were a Competence Scale adapted from Ghazali et al. (2023) and an Innovative Work Behavior scale. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression analysis. The results indicated that competence had a significant effect on innovative work behavior (F = 191.553; p < 0.001; β = 0.578), with a contribution of 38%. These findings suggest that higher levels of competence, covering self-development, personal effectiveness, teamwork, and interpersonal skills are associated with higher levels of innovative work behavior among lecturers.]]>
