Abstract

The goal of this research is to determine the impact of transformative leadership (TL) on innovation performance in terms of process and product innovation It improves perceptions of paths to enhance certain characteristics of innovation performance by assessing the mediating function of knowledge sharing (KS) and the moderating effect of absorptive ability. Based on data obtained from 243 participants in Jordanian pharmaceutical enterprises, this study performs a questionnaire survey and uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to evaluate hypotheses in the suggested research model.The research shows that TL is the primary driving factor behind the KS process and innovative results. The research addresses a large gap in the literature by focusing on how KS mediates the impact of TL on certain characteristics of innovative performance. The research greatly helps to developing the deeper understanding of the particular circumstances to increase the link between KS and innovative performance by examining the moderator of absorptive capacity.
