| Summary: | The purpose of this paper is to determine the influence of leadership on
Innovation Efficiency (IE) in manufacturing firms in Kenya. A mixed research
methodology was and cross-sectional design was applied. The target population
was 2484 leaders and multi-stage sampling was used to sample 345
respondents. Primary data was collected. The results revealed that leadership
has a significant influence on IE. It is concluded that management should
practice and encourage creativity, exploration, inspiration, exploitation and entrepreneurial
mindset to promote IE. Further research should be conducted
to find out how leadership should balance the trade-off between risk management
and IE. |
