Description
Summary:The current study aimed at measuring the impact of transformational leadership on creativity at the University of Science and Technology Hospital in the Capital Secretariat (Sana'a). The study population consisted of 1022 staff of the University of Science and Technology Hospital (USTH). To achieve the objectives of the study, the descriptive analytical method was employed and a questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 279 participants; however, only 252 questionnaires were valid for analysis. The data were processed and analyzed by using the SPSS. The findings revealed a significant positive impact of transformational leadership in its four dimensions, (i.e. ideal impact, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation and individual consideration), on creativity. The findings also showed that the practice of the senior management leaders of USTH reflected behaviors of transformational leaders substantially. The dimension of ideal impact was ranked first, followed by intellectual stimulation. The dimensions of inspirational motivation and individual consideration were ranked third and fourth respectively. The study recommends that more attention should be given to transformational leadership due to its positive impact on creativity.
