Research on the Relationship between Leader's Creative Refusal and Employee's Deviant Innovation Behavior

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Based on social cognitive theory and stress cognitive appraisal theory, this paper explores the relationship between leadership creativity rejection and employee transgressive innovation. Leadership creativity rejection is a common phenomenon in the process of organizational innovation, but the mechanism of its influence on employees' innovative behavior has not been fully revealed. Social cognitive theory emphasizes that individual behavior is influenced by observational learning and self-efficacy, while the cognitive appraisal theory of stress states that an individual's cognitive appraisal of a stressful event determines his or her emotional and behavioral responses. This study argues that leadership creativity rejection, as a stressful event, triggers different cognitive appraisals and emotional responses from employees, which in turn affects their transgressive innovation behavior.
