In a dynamic organizational context, employees’ ability to innovate is heavily influenced by empowering leadership as well as support for personal development. The, which includes granting autonomy and participation in decision-making, is expected to improve PDS and EIB. Personal development support can strengthen innovation by increasing employee competence and confidence. Meanwhile, SE, as an individual’s belief in one’s ability to achieve goals, functions as a mediator and moderator that strengthens the influence of and PDS on EIB.
