This change has placed a premium on innovation and creativity and makes it a hot topic and agenda.
Creativity is the foundation of innovation, among the variables that influence creativity on subordinates in organizational settings, leader support behavior has been examined by many researchers as being one of the most important¡F however, most of the researchers only focus on the concept of ¡§support¡¨ but not specific leader ¡§behavior¡¨. One of the aims of the present study is to find out how perceptions of leader support arise.
The significance of trust in organizations has been examined by many researchers. With trustworthy supervisors, subordinates can feel free to try something new and do not need to be afraid of the negative outcomes. The second aim of this study is to investigate the moderating effect of trust on subordinates¡¦ creativity under the leader support behavior. 320 samples are collected.
Based on the findings of the present study, we argue that leadership of creative subordinates required leader support behavior and trust in management, thus, the creativity in organizations could be enhanced.
