“…Despite there being various styles of leadership, transformational leadership has received much attention (Senior and Fleming, 2006) and has often been studied by researchers to predict innovation performance (Chen et al , 2012; Gumusluoglu and Ilsev, 2009a, b). According to Di Benedetto (2013), in recent years, transformational leadership has become an emerging research topic in innovation and has increasingly received attention from scholars. Many studies support the positive effect of transformational leadership on organizational innovation (Aragón-Correa et al , 2007; García-Morales et al , 2008; Gumusluoglu and Ilsev, 2009a, b; Jung et al , 2008; Matzler et al , 2008; Noruzy et al , 2013).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the direct and indirect effects of CEO transformational leadership on product innovation performance. This research investigates the mechanism between CEO transformational leadership and product innovation performance, to understand the process through which transformational CEOs exert their influence. Design/methodology/approach This study is a quantitative research. Data were collected from 269 manufacturing firms in Thailand through a mail survey. This research applied a two-step structural equation modeling process. Findings The results indicate that CEO transformational leadership indirectly affects product innovation performance through an innovation culture, organizational learning, and the new product development (NPD) process. CEO transformational leadership has a strong effect on innovation culture and organizational learning. Organizational learning is strongly associated with the NPD process, which significantly leads to product innovation performance. By integrating the knowledge of leadership and operations management fields, this study helps extend the understanding of how leaders at the top of an organization influence the NPD process and product innovation outcomes. Practical implications For practical implications to be more effective, CEOs focusing on product innovation should develop their skills and behaviors of transformational leadership to foster innovation culture and organizational learning, which in turn will affect product innovation performance. Originality/value This study makes a contribution to the literature by filling the research gaps proposed by several prior studies and offering a theoretical framework of the relationship between CEO transformational leadership and product innovation performance.

This study intends to bridge the extant literature and knowledge gap by investigating UK textile manufacturing to demonstrate the effect of supply chain practices and organisational performance. The significance of this research cannot be understated and will be of great significance to textile companies in the UK and globally as it will offer beneficial preferences into the idea of effective supply chain management practices and their impact on unit performance. In addition, their stakeholders will gain a better understanding of the barriers to implementing effective SCM practices and make relevant recommendations on how to address them. Policymakers and governments will also benefit from this research on appropriate strategies for implementing supply chain management practices. In addition, this research also has great importance for other scholars and students who are interested in conducting similar research, so it can be used as a reference for the literature. This study will open avenues for the UK scholars, providing them the opportunity to establish the relationship between supply chain practices and organisational performance.

“…Before continuing, we would like to make a distinction between a research stream and a school of thought. Consider, for example, the innovation literature (Di Benedetto, 2013) that shows the emergence from the first few articles through growth and now maturity. In the early years, there was a narrow range of research streams: new product process, R&D-marketing interface, organizational issues, accelerated time to market, and a few other research streams.…”
