Abstract

A creatividade individual constitúe un input fundamental para a innovación e a
competitividade das pemes intensivas en tecnoloxía e coñecemento. Este artigo considera
que os supervisores cun estilo de liderado transformador poden estimular a creatividade
dos empregados mediante o engagement. Os resultados do estudo, contrastado mediante
ecuacións estruturais nunha mostra de empregados de pemes intensivas en tecnoloxía e
coñecemento, así o confirman. Este achado supón importantes implicacións para a
dirección das pemes intensivas en tecnoloxía e coñecemento que se enfronta ao desafío de
potenciar a creatividade dos empregados.
