KEYWORDS
A few inferences can be drawn from the study's findings. According to the study's findings, an employee's creativity in achieving the goals of the business depends heavily on their sense of organizational self- esteem. The same was noted for transformational leadership, which is crucial for achieving creativity. Both of the elements had a significant impact on creativity. The relationship between transformational leadership and creativity is moderated by organizational base self-esteem. These results led to the following conclusion: managers must cultivate trust, establish a culture that will support organizationally-based self-esteem, and strengthen the bond between the organization and their workforce to maintain organizational boundaries and achieve employee creativity.
