Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the influence of spiritual and authentic leadership styles on organizational innovation in Saudi universities. We examined how the influence of these leadership styles fluctuates, depending on the extent of knowledge sharing. Then we built a suggested model, using (SEM) for data analysis. The results of the study concluded that spiritual and authentic leadership have a positive influence on organizational innovation. in addition to the positive influence of knowledge sharing on organizational innovation. However, knowledge sharing plays a positive mediating role between spiritual leadership and organizational innovation, whereas this trend was not found for authentic leadership.
