| dc.description.abstract | The rapid growth of radio broadcasting business in Indonesia imposes specific challenges on the development of competitive advantage. The radio stations are applying excellent and unique elements such as speed, mobility (activity), learning ability, and individual or team work capabilities, which represent global competition. It is an important source of competitive strength for radio station organizations that are concerned with growth and changes. To be responsive to change is to be creative. It is critical for managers to do their best to ensure and realize that creativity is one of the most important elements in order to achieve high performance. To accomplish this aim, it is important to understand people’s personality, motivations, skills, level of experiences, and psychological preferences. Grounded by the Interactionist model of Individual Creativity (Woodman, Sawyer & Griffin, 1993), the present research proposed a framework linking Indonesian radio station managers’ Personality, Intrinsic motivation, Creativity-relevant personal characteristics, Leader-member exchange (LMX), and Creative performance. The present research has managed to show the importance of Leader-member exchange and multiplicative nature among personal characteristics. A total of 283 operating managers of Indonesian radio stations, representing a response rate of 15.2%, participated in the present research. Data for all variables were collected through self-administered survey questionnaires. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses were conducted to test the hypotheses posited in the present research. Results of the statistical analyses indicated that: (1) Agreeableness as a dimension of Personality negatively influenced ‘presenting creative, concrete and practical ideas’ (the first dimension of creative performance), whereas Extraversion and Conscientiousness positively influenced “presenting creative suggestions” (the second dimension of creative performance), (2) Creativity-relevant personal characteristics and intrinsic motivation of the radio station operating managers only influenced “Presenting creative, concrete and practical ideas”, but not “Presenting creative suggestions”, (3) both leaders’ affection and leaders’ perception of the followers’ work contribution towards their leaders play an important role in enhancing creativity. It seems very important to acknowledge these roles in both theorizing and taking managerial decisions on how to recognize and reward creativity. The present research has contributed to the field of multiplicative effect by developing a new model of individual creativity. | en_US |
