Abstract | Leadership styles have great influence on innovation performance. Therefore, this paper studies the influence of leadership styles on bootlegging innovation and innovation performance from the perspective of social cognitive theory (SCT). The research targets knowledge workers employed in high-tech companies in Guangxi as the respondents, and a total of 522 valid questionnaires are collected through a survey. The hypotheses are tested with a structural equation model. The hypotheses testing results reveal that leadership styles affect the bootlegging innovation and innovation performance; Both transformational leadership and empowering leadership are found to have significant positive effects; the results further demonstrate that bootlegging innovation positively affects innovation performance and serves as a mediator in the relationship between leadership styles and innovation performance. This paper introduces bootlegging innovation as a loyal deviance, which provides an theoretical perspective for the process of leadership styles to innovation performance. By reproducing this study in high-tech enterprises, our results would be very helpful to develop a new model of leadership styles and innovation performance that can help enterprises to manage employees' bootlegging innovation behavior more effectively. |
