Journal Title: SEISENSE Journal of Management - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The objectives of this conceptual paper are two fol ds: to propose and argue a) the direct relationship between leader creativity expectations and creative performance; and b) the mediating role of intrinsic motivation between leader creativity expectations and creative performance. Design - Drawing upon Py gmalion effect, Herzberg’s two - factor theory of motivation, and componential theory of creativity, two propositions are suggested. Findings - It is proposed that there will be a positive relationship between leader creativity expectations and creative perf ormance. In addition, the authors also make the case that intrinsic motivation will mediate the relationship between leader creativity expectations and creative performance. Originality - The significant original contribution of this article is that it sug gests a theoretical relationship of Pygmalion effect with Herzberg’s two - factor theory of motivation and componential theory of creativity to propose a new conceptual framework. In addition, this paper extends our knowledge regarding the pertinent role of leader creativity expectations in stimulating divergent thinking process of people in the workplace. Policy Implications - This article attempts to provide a clear guideline to both practitioners and academicians to better explore the relationship be tween expectations and employee creativity. The proposed framework may be applied in various social contexts such as healthcare, education, creative advertising, research and development, hospitality and new business incubation.
