What the paper says
Purpose The purpose of the study is to explore the extent to which emotional intelligence and self-efficacy influence the impact of organisational culture on employee creativity. Design/methodology/approach The study adopts a quantitative research approach, utilizing an explanatory study design, and data were obtained from 235 healthcare workers in Ghana. Data were analysed using inferential and descriptive statistics with the aid of SPSS (v. 26.0) and SMART PLS (v. 4.0). Findings The study found that emotional intelligence, self-efficacy and organisational culture significantly relate with employee creativity. Further, the results revealed that self-efficacy moderated the relationship between organisational culture and creativity. However, emotional intelligence did not moderate the relationship between organisational culture and employee creativity. Originality/value This study offers original contributions by exploring how emotional intelligence and self-efficacy function as moderating variables in the relationship between organisational culture and employee creativity. By focusing on an underresearched geographical and sectoral context, the study not only fills a notable gap in the literature but also offers practical implications for fostering innovation in healthcare institutions across similar developing country settings.
