“…On the influence of leadership skills on effectiveness of departmental leadership in Mogotio Sub County hospitals in Kenya. Njoroge, Ndirangu and Kiambi (2022) sought the role of transformational leadership on millennials' dedication in level five private hospitals in Kenya while Nzinga, McGivern and English (2018) focused on examining clinical leadership in Kenyan public hospitals through the distributed leadership lens. However, there is relatively little empirical research on creative work culture among the mission hospitals in Kenya, despite weak leadership and managerial capacities contributing to problems facing health systems in these settings.…”

Purpose: Those who employ creative leadership tend to do so by creating conditions which promote creativity. Creating such conditions are described as psychological, material, and/or social supports that trigger, enable, and sustain creative thinking in others. The objective were to establish the effect of creative work culture on performance of mission hospitals in Kenya and to establish the moderating effect of perceived organizational support on the effect of creative work culture on performance of Mission Hospitals in Kenya. Methodology: The cross-sectional survey design was used as the study design with the positivist philosophy also being adopted. The sample populations comprised 285 Mission hospital staff at middle or lower levels of employment. Purposive sampling was used in identifying samples that possess the information needed for the study. Questionnaire was the main data collection instruments. This was tested for validity and reliability before being used for the study. Collected data was analyzed quantitatively using SPSS 24th Edition software and was presented in the form of descriptive and inferential results. Descriptive statistics involved percentages, means and means of Standard deviations while inferential involved simple regression analysis. Findings: The study found that a creative work culture, where staffs are confident in their creative capabilities and where there's a positive, collaborative climate, significantly contributes to hospital performance. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study was grounded on interactionist perspective and transactional leadership theory. The study recommends that healthcare institutions should encourage creativity and innovation at all levels by providing opportunities for staff to express their ideas and collaborate. Training programs focusing on creative thinking and problem-solving skills should be implemented to enhance the creative capabilities of the staff. Leadership should emphasize the importance of a positive and collaborative work climate, where team members feel a strong sense of belonging and commitment. Regular team-building activities and brainstorming sessions can further promote this culture.

“…However, there is relatively little empirical research on mentorship creative leadership among the mission hospitals in Kenya, despite weak leadership and managerial capacities contributing to problems facing health systems in these settings. Similarly, studies conducted on the relationship between some of the leadership styles and organizational performance has also given inconsistent results (Kiptingos et al, 2020;Nzinga et al, 2018;Njoroge, 2022). Therefore, there is a significant gap between mentorship creative leadership and performance of mission hospitals in Kenya.…”

Purpose: Those who employ creative leadership tend to do so by creating conditions which promote creativity. Creating such conditions are described as psychological, material, and/or social supports that trigger, enable, and sustain creative thinking in others. The study sought to establish the effect of mentorship creative leadership practice on performance of mission hospitals in Kenya and to establish the moderating effect of perceived organizational support on the effect of mentorship creative leadership practice on performance of mission hospitals in Kenya. Methodology: The study was grounded on servant leadership theory and Transactional Leadership Theory. The cross-sectional survey design was used as the study design with the positivist philosophy also being adopted. The sample populations comprised 285 Mission hospital staff at middle or lower levels of employment selected through census. Questionnaire was the main data collection instruments. This was tested for validity and reliability before being used for the study. Collected data was analyzed quantitatively using SPSS 24th version software and was presented in the form of descriptive and inferential results. Descriptive statistics involved percentages, means and means of Standard deviations while inferential involved linear regression analysis. The study results were presented through use of tables and figures Findings: The findings of the study underscore the substantial influence of effective mentorship in enhancing both individual and organizational performance in the context of Mission hospitals in Kenya. The strong agreement among respondents on the various aspects of mentorship, combined with the significant statistical correlation between mentorship and improved hospital performance, underscores the value of investing in robust mentorship programs. Perceived organizational support moderates the effect of mentorship on performance of Mission hospitals in Kenya. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommends that healthcare institutions prioritize the development and enhancement of mentorship programs. These programs should focus on leadership development, skill acquisition, and professional growth, tailored to the diverse needs of individual employees. From the study, Mentorship could explain upto 63.1% of the performance of mission hospitals in Kenya. This study therefore recommends further study on other factors affecting performance of mission hospitals in Kenya.

Why does job anxiety negatively impact employee creativity? an ego depletion theory perspective

Job anxiety has long been seen as a major factor affecting employees' job performance. The reasons and processes by which affective commitment and work engagement impact employee creativity can be studied through the lens of ego depletion theory. In this study, we surveyed employees in a theme park and applied structural equation modeling to analyze the survey data. Our observations suggested that the decline in employee creativity due to job anxiety was possibly the result of low affective commitment and work engagement, with work engagement being a key mediating factor. The development of emotional ego depletion in service industry employees after experiencing job anxiety could explain our observations. Emotional depletion not only affects employees' work attitudes and emotional expressions but also reduces their motivation for creativity.
